I don't think the existing MacOS X AG port will be of much use at the moment on an iPhone port. If I'm not mistaken, the iPhone only supports Cocoa and not the legacy MacOS/MacOS X Carbon API, so wxPython (used by the AGTk GUI) and Tcl/Tk (used by vic & rat) would first need to be ported to Cocoa.

Ouch. Yes -- I was assuming that the development tools and toolkits were already Cocoa-native, and that relatively little additional work needed to be done to update them to work with the modified APIs for the Cocoa Touch iPhone user interface.

Considering that Mac OS X 10.5 came out in October 2007, and yet we're still waiting for a released version of AG that will work under "Leopard", I guess this probably is asking way too much. ;-(
