This is why they really need to teach every computer user a little
about programming. :-(

It's perfectly possibly to write NW Classic for OS X. But remember
that it took about a dozen years to get from Nisus 1.0 to NisusWriter
6.5. Nisus Software decided to rewrite NisusWriter from the ground
up -- and that meant learning to program in a whole new way and
*then* rebuilding the program.

It was a mistake; in hindsight, I thing that beyond question. But it's
not that programming in OS X is hard; if you were to start from zero
(not just zero code, but complete ignorance), it's faster to program
in OS X than OS 9. Problem is, no one at Nisus Software realized how
complete their ignorance was....
