There's a few packages that I know of...

One is called XVT (eXtensible Virtual Toolkit) from XVT Software.
It allows you to create applications for 6 environments: MacOS, MS
Windows, Presentation Manager, X11/Motif, X11/Open Look, and
character-based environments. XVT ph: 303-443-4223.

Another is called Open Interface by Neuron Data, which allows you to build
applications on Macintosh, DOS, OS/2, Unix and VMS environments in MacOS,
MS WIndows, Presentation Manager, Motif and Open Look GUI styles. Sounds
similar to XVT. Neuron Data ph: 415-321-4488.
