Not quite native. Like BibleDesktop, it doesn't quite look like a Mac
application. Much of the look and feel problems that BD has so does BT.
I'm glad I have a fast mac. For whatever reason, it is slower than I would have
expected for a C++ application.
Criticism aside, it seems quite stable and it does the job.
I think Joachim knows of BT on Mac. :) If any of you on the BT team can help
Xiphos get on the Mac, that'd be great! (We're all in this together!)
I could provide some detailed criticism if it'd be helpful. Much of it would be
based upon the log in my own eye as a BD dev.
In His Service,
