I wonder if anybody has taken advantage of Jay Krell's work on the Win32
version of STk? I would like to count on STk being available for both the
PC and Mac within a few years, and I hope I am not being naive. Tcl/Tk is
already there, and the Visual C++ VC-Mac extension seems to claim that it
can produce binaries for Win32, Mac, and Power Mac.

Erick, can you estimate the number of serious STk users and comment on
the likelihood of a stable Mac port in the next 3 years? I am a Unix
person and would be happy to ignore the Mac and say it's going away, but
my anticipated users (in education) are heavily into Mac's and are likely
to remain so.
thanks,
        Jon
