First Look: Revolution 3.0, cross-platform compiler

Almost everyone has had an idea for a computer program, but trying to convert those ideas into a working application has usually meant using confusing, complicated tools and learning cryptic programming languages such as C++. To make programming more accessible for novices and more productive for veteran programmers, Runtime Revolution offers a unique cross-platform development tool dubbed Revolution 3.0.

The most unique feature of this program is its cross-platform capabilities. Not only can you write programs on Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux, but you can also create applications for each operating system as well. Write a program once on your Mac and with a click of the mouse, you can create three different versions of your program.
