Re: One unified OS for the future?

Not being an NG user or a programmer, I'm wondering, how hard is it to code an application that works under both OS4/MorphOS? That I see different versions for things on Aminet is about the most knowledge I have on the subject. From what I understand, they both can run non hardware-banging 3.1 compatible applications natively, correct? And both can run native Amiga hardware-banging code through some form of JIT compiler or built-in UAE, correct? So beyond that, how difficult is it to write things to run on both?

I dont think AmiStore is that useful without internet :)

Ha!

Kind of makes sense that most people who are going online with an Amiga already have MUI installed.  I suppose there's rare cases where they wouldn't, but eh.  My .02 cents, either MUI or GadTools is fine.  Would love to try it out on my A2000! :)
