Xref: mnetor net.micro.68k:1216 net.micro.mac:6962 net.micro.amiga:4641 The whole point of the Mac is its User Interface. The strategy is to make all the hardships of using a computer disappear. Naturally, this also forces the programmer to do a lot more. This means that the most accepted way of writing programs will be to use a skeleton such as MacApp. Hopefully there will be enough programmers willing to put up with this hassle, because the market sure needs a computer that's easy to use.
