Borland maintains that you need to write the application using CLX on Windows
and Linux.
you don't.
you can _EASILY_ use VCL on Windows, and CLX on Linux - they are sufficiently
similar. however, they are not identical, so some work and understanding on your
part is required.
for a good summary on how to use the one source (.pas and .dfm) for real
cross-platform capability, check out:
chemware.hypermart.net/cross-platform.htm
for a real example, get the TPLot 2.42 source (3.00 still has a few issues), and
look at how it can be done.
cheers,
Mat
