[REPOST: dgsi.ann-arbor.cimage.com has been having a little trouble posting lately. It looks like the original never made it out, but if it did, sorry.] We are writing an application that will run under MicroSoft Windows on PCs and also under X11 on workstations. We would like to minimize the number of #ifdef's. Our goal is to have one set of source code and no need for special user documentation for the different systems. Our current product runs on PC's (not under MicroSoft Windows) and workstations running X mostly with lots of programmer sweat and #ifdef's. There must be a better way. I am interested in public domain software, commercial products or something in between. Thanks in Advance. -------------- Paul Haas paulh@ann-arbor.cimage.com (313) 761-7478

I believe that XVT attempts to do something like that, allowing one to
write code to XVT specs, and then compile for MS Windows, MOTIF, Mac or
Curses using the appropriate host libraries.
Sorry, Don't have the address handy. The company's TLA is GSS. You might
find a ad in Dr. Dobbs or Unix Review....
