Purely for engine code, that's true. Standard windows has APIs that are nearly compatible with xxux for command line initialization and ordinary file and network operations. If your program has ANY gui at all though, you're pretty much screwed. Mac Windows and Linux GUIs are about as far apart as any three platforms can be. There are lots of "compatibility" solutions, including your choice of platform independent languages; but they all create essentially a fourth platform that you have to target, and once again, you're screwed unless you started that way. _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list [email protected] http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
