I'd be happier if he'd bring Printreport to the OSX world, otherwise 
I'd still be using his XCMDs... actually for some stacks to difficult 
to convert right now, I do and use it every day in Classic.

Even better would be to develop a library for Rev, then everybody 
would be happy.

It got to the point that Hypercard was an ideal interface and glue; 
but the XCMDs did most of the work.  I would often have over 50 in a 
project and still have thousands of them on a CD. Too bad they can't 
run in X. It's still PPC code resource - but calls the old APIs... 
damn..

But Compilit! - Whoa, Tom Pittman, what a genius...maybe he could 
make a cross platform XCMD generator that runs Transcript...
