I am very interested in "mac-on-darwin," and I am willing to contribute what
I can in the porting effort. I have done some c work, but I don't know much
about MOL. Does anyone know actually what it would take to port MOL over to
darwin? Just a brief summary would be wonderful and perhaps an estimate of
what percentage of code would have to be changed.
