(Is there a line eater?)

Has anyone had any experience in porting applications written in C on the IBM
PC to the Macintosh?  I'm not even talking about using any Macish thing here,
just porting something which runs on the PC and having it run, no matter how
ugly and PC like, on the Mac?  How big a problem is it?

A related, but completely different question, really for Larry Rosenstein.  Is
it possible to include C code in a MacApp design?  I want to do this if the
first question is possible, since the user interface is a lot simpler from
MacApp.

Thanks

Don Carlile
