     It's also worth noting that if you use MacApp, your source code may
be "contaminated" with Apple code, and you may have legal difficulties 
porting it to non-Apple platforms.  Since a port to Windows may make
good business sense, it's probably wise to get legal advice
before using MacApp for any serious work.
