Good point... I was thinking of the challenges bringing new users up
to speed with user experiences that are quite different depending on
platform. But if there isn't sufficient demand (i.e. Mac users have
little incentive to switch, and Linux users have reasons to prefer a
modular architecture) then I would agree that the better approach is
to improve the user experience in Psycollider.
