Of course cross platform tools increase the lag of uptake on new technology, 
and they always look awkward (yes, Rev does look awkward on all platforms). But 
then, they allow developers to produce one product, and get it to customers on 
several platforms,

I will always be grateful to RunRev (despite what I have written about its second-class Linux offering) for allowing me to develop a Mac/Win tool for Sanskrit input; it took an awful lot of blood, sweat and tears, and the thought of having to do that twice (i.e. once for Mac and once for Win) gives me the shudders.

A while back (1999) I developed something with Hypercard for Mac and then the whole thing all over again for Windows using Toolbook . . . . . . never again he cries, ripping off his leopardskin and lolloping off into the
jungle to wrestles with a bear.

However, it would have been lovely to have managed it for Linux as well . . . :)
