If that used Qt or wxWidgits it would be multi platform. It does need to use Python at all initially - if ever. I guess there is more than one way to approach it, but if one set out with the aim of nothing much more than a decent scientific calculator, one would not need to worry about porting things that are hard. I would not think it too hard to generate a parser which is linked to the * GMP * MPFR * GNU scientific library which I would expect would compile with Qt or WxWidgets without too many changes. If it used Qt, the code could be developed on virtually any platform. Producing executables for many mobile phones, including Android and Apple iPhone and iPad, Linux etc. By only linking to code and not calling external command-line tools, it should be possible to create a uniform interface, which is one of the criticisms of Sage.
