As promised (hurray for them!), FontLab has released an OS X-compatible version of Fontographer (4.7). This release includes improved functions:

native support for Mac OS X
support for the Euro character
updated encodings
copy-paste compatibility with new Illustrator and Freehand versions
numerous bug fixes

Free downloadable demos are available at the web site (you can play around but not save the file or generate fonts).

To upgrade from Fontographer 4 to 4.7, $99; from 3.x to 4.7, $198. To buy, $349. (And there are other deals as well.)

They also offer the Windows version of Fontographer 4 (the old version), but warn there may be problems with Windows 2000, ME, or XP.
