Thanks Bradlee, I'm not really a programmer so what I was originally refering to was using authoring tools to develop on one system and then port to another. However, I suspect that all the platform specific code could be put into special functions that would be different depending on what system it's on. Thus the main algorithms would be the same and you'd just plug in any special, non-standard, features. Of course, you'd have to have knowledge of all the target systems. Out of interest, does your cross development involve a lot of pre-planning by looking at all the environments (to find the common elements) or do you do one and then "hammer" it into the others?
