There's not much to it, other than learning the quirks of Mac OS. You'll probably want to stick with Carbon and OS X (and beyond), especially if your app is C/C++ based. Another helpful suggestion : start thinking in more generic terms. Use STL instead of Windows APIs. Design classes from an interface, not from an implementation. These small steps will help you go a long way in make porting less painful.
