Yes, that's entirely true. Unfortunately it's boring, too. The current
Blue Box takes over the whole screen and I only expect it to change in
Mac OS X (Q3/1999), if at all. Of course, Clean could be ported to
"Carbon", an API that's a 98% subset of the current Mac OS API. It
probably would not be complicated. A lot more interesting would be a
port from the current Linux version to Mac OS X proper. It would
probably be some more work, but had the advantage to use the solid BSD
underpinnings of Mac OS X.
