is there anything they can code on a mac or PC that will run on an Amiga these days?

If they're coding in C it's a simple matter of recompiling (as long as they're not using Windows or Mac specific APIs).  GUI-based programs are inherently non-portable without a lot of rewriting though.

Of course you can run x11 on your classic and run GTK/QT apps natively but that's slow and ugly.


Note there is a native version of Qt 4.7 for AmigaOS4.
