Hi Martin,

Yes that's the same Qt that I'm referring to, but the open source license it has also allows use for commercial programs as well.

MoI since v3 already uses Qt for the HTML engine. There was a major restructuring from MoI v2 to v3 which involved switching from using the Internet Explorer HTML engine to using the WebKit HTML engine supplied by QtWebKit. The next level is to port more mechanisms over to use Qt as well for frame windows, event handling, timers, etc... and then a big item is to port the graphics engine from Direct3D to OpenGL. One of the best parts of Wine was that it has a very good built in translation from Direct3D to OpenGL which made it possible for me to avoid that work previously but with a native compiled Mac version I would need to have MoI make OpenGL calls on the Mac instead of the current calls into the Direct3D API.


> It looks like it would allow to keep the current UI in HTML?

Yup, that's what I would be going for.
