- We currently use "Action!" from Expertelligence to do the user interface for
- our application. While Expertelligence advertises that you can use "Action!"
- to port interfaces between platforms, this capability (last time I checked) is
- not yet finished. I would advise that you talk to the Expertelligence people
- to find out the status of "Action!" for the various platforms you are
- interested in before you get your hopes up too much.
