No, I don't think so. There seems to have been a
definite development bias towards the Mac native port.
Fortunately, I don't own a Mac that is capable of running Xconq,
and so I cannot be biased towards the more mature Mac native
interface. So, in the long term I hope to tip the playing field
against the Mac native interface by either building up the SDL
interface or adding some missing functionality and polish to the
Tcl/Tk interface. However, Hans (the primary Mac developer) has
gotten a few years running start on me. :-)
Regards,
Eric
