      If you want the programs to run without an emulator, you'll have to wait for a PC version of one of the current editors. If you can make it work with an emulator, then any of the current program is good.

      At the moment, you need a Mac emulator to run a plugin editor. A programmer may make an editor for Windows in the future, but for now it looks like emulation is your only option.

      Edit: beaten by one minute. To add something interesting to this post, I'll write the above in gobbledegook.

      In fact, I actually have the beginnings of MissionComputer for Windows in place, although I haven't implemented a resource framework yet, so none of the actual features work. 🙂

      As far as the feature set goes, it will probably be basically the same as the Mac version, except minus such features as depend on Mac-specific technology, and with support for EV Nova only. (It'll make the metadata handling a lot easier, and I figure that if you're running one of the previous games on a PC, you've already got a Mac emulator.)

      So what, that's basically all the user friendlyness? 😛

      Actually, although I obviously haven't worked out the feature set yet, it will probably have most of the same features, except that the external editor plug-in architecture will have to go, being based on Apple Events (but that doesn't matter since it doesn't look like I'm actually going to use it), along with a few things like drag and drop, possibly the PICT editor (unfortunately), and some minor interface elements. Also, MissionComputer for Windows will most likely use a different file format than EV Nova for Windows, making a convertor utility necessary. There may be one or two other things which turn out not to work on Windows, but I can't predict them.

      It should be possible to use Quicktime on Windows to display the pictures. I know next to nothing about Windows programming, though, and I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't work 🙂
