    Mac OS X equivalent of VB6?

    Hey guys,

    What is the Mac OS X equivalent of Visual Basic 6/.NET ? (although I'd rather its like vb6 with no .net application pre-requisites)

    Is it very good to work with, and would something like the very common "Webbrowser control" exist with it? ( Using Safari of course )

    Thanks!

    David

    EDIT: Additionally, I've read up on "REALBasic" to convert VB6 apps to Mac OS X or Linux compatible applications. Does that work well? What would be my best bet for cloning my webbrowser-based application for Mac (or linux)

    They have http://developer.apple.com/sdk/ but there doesn't seem to be much in the way of something concrete.

    The Mono Framework works on the OSX, so that should allow you to write .NET apps for the Mac. However, it'll mean that users will need to download and install the Mono Framework for your application to work.
