Folks:

Title implies question:  how does one become a Mac programmer?  I have the 
programmers button installed on my Mac SE and I have Macintosh Pascal 2.0.  
Do I need to upgrade to THINK Pascal?  

Do I need to join the Apple Programmers/Developers Association?  If this is 
the case, what are the advantages/disadvantages of joining/not joining?  Do
I also need to buy the Macintosh Programmers Workbench (the beginners' version
if available)?  

Also, what books do I need to buy to get me started as a Mac Programmer?  
How many programs have been written in Macintosh Pascal 2.0?  I also have 
MacsBug (ver. unknown) installed in my System, which is 6.0.3.

BTW, I have just started reading this newsgroup, so forgive me.
