It isn't. SuperCard is available exclusively for macOS. There was an
effort in the mid-90s to port to Windows, but funding dried up before it
was completed so no useful version ever saw the light of day.
Toolbook is also single-platform, Windows-only.
But most of the others were cross-platform to varying degrees: OMO and
Plus were Mac and Windows, Gain Momentum was Unix and Windows, SenseTalk
ran on Mac, Windows, and Unix.
LC is unique in its expansion to mobile, though. And today, even
looking beyond xTalks, I don't see any other scripting tool with
integrated GUI elements available for as many platforms.
