I've seen lots of Mac<->Windows<->OS/2 conversion libraries and books and
such, but unfortunately the people who worked on these things didn't view
the Amiga as important enough a platform to handle.
At the broadest level, the Mac and Amiga kernals are kinda the same, at
least as far as the user interface goes (event driven, etc). But the
minute you get into any detail they start becoming radically different
(like the fact that it's _your_ program's responsibility to pass events
along to desk accessories, which strikes me as unbelievably strange…).
If someone did do an Amiga<->Mac cross reference or conversion library, I'm
sure alot of people would find it very useful.
