Aside from being outside my area of expertise, it's not my project and
therefore not my call.
Would that facilitate running on MacOS as well?
The whole cross-platform thing is a bit of a minefield. I dabbled with SDL
briefly but couldn't get the architecture of an existing project to bend
enough into the SDL framework. Or perhaps it was merely my inexperience.
WxWidgets looked promising, but there were annoying little 'features' and
also bugs in the app that couldn't be explained by anything outside the Wx
library (bad worker blames his tools?)
Having said that, there are projects out there that seem to do this fairly
successfully. But I wonder if the software in these cases was designed from
the ground-up from an experienced developer with this in mind so as to avoid
'wrong' design decisions?
