If money is tight, you might consider trying VirtualBox - it's apparently free. I haven't used it myself, but I've heard good things about it, and there are at least a couple Mac users leveraging it.

I figured C++ as a likely suspect for the language; I just didn't want to make the assumption. Glad to hear that things are going as well as can be expected.
Edit: I went looking for VirualBox, just out of curiosity. It is freely available open source software. You can get it here. Last edited by FifthWanderer; October 22nd, 2010 at 06:40 AM. |

But don't let this dissuade you from doing a Mac OS version! -Cal PS: On the other hand, I have about two laptops here and a desktop, but my license is set to the Mac and one laptop that my father borrowed (indefinitely). I'll have to read up on the licensing agreement more... |

I assume your father isn't using Hero Lab right now on that laptop. If that's correct, just move the license on that laptop to a different computer you have access to. You can do this by simply activating that license number on a different computer. If it's been at least 4 months since you last activated the license on the other laptop, you can do this automatically. If it's been less than 4 months, you'll be sent to a form where you can request to have the waiting period waived. Nancy (support) usually gets those requests sorted out in 24 hours.

I'm a Software QA engineer at Apple, actually, and I'd like to offer my assistance once the Mac port reaches a point where people can start looking at it.

Any update on how this is going? I'm very interested in HL being ported to Mac!
