What commercial applications run on MachTen?
Until now there hasn’t been a real incentive for vendors to port their applications to MachTen, since they were already directing their efforts toward Apple’s A/UX. Now that Apple has dropped support for A/UX, and their Power Macintosh UNIX plans have been made more complicated by CHRP, MachTen has been the only UNIX for Power Macintosh. This unique position makes MachTen an attractive platform for commercial vendor ports. Since MachTen is very standard UNIX, porting applications is very straightforward.
