"Plus" by Spinnaker works well on both machines (tho' I've never gotten
its report functions to work).  Plus is a Hypercard look-alike and
have used it for several work-related projects.

We are currently reviewing cT, developed at Carnegie Mellon and
distributed by Falcon Software. cT has a learning curve since it is an
Authoring Language(as is hypercard; but, not Authorware).  The language
used to create the product can be compiled on PC, Mac, and UNIX machines
running X11. The graphics(referred to as "icons") can be converted to
either platform via an intermediate format(".fdb").  I have not seen the
results of porting, yet.  But, but the end of Wed...  If the target DOS
machines may not have Windows or even be Windows capable, cT can help...

Also, cT code can be written to allow different screen sizes: the fonts
and graphics get scaled.

You can reach a Falcon rep. at (617)235-1767

I am not associated with Carnegie Mellon or Falcon Software, Inc.

For those interested, the cT language is a derivative of the TUTOR language
developed for the PLATO system.  If you don't know what TUTOR or PLATO are,
then this information is not of much use.  However, if you have programmed in
TUTOR, or even TenCORE, you'll be able to pick up cT pretty easily.
