I like Object Pascal because it's much more elegant, but C++ is where the power is. I wouldn't use TML Pascal II 3 for MacApp. I'm trying, but it needs to be kludged to recognize it. So does MacApp to recognize TML. So if you go to objects, use Apple's Pascal, Think C, or Apple C++. I just got mail from Symantec. TML is discontinuing its Pascal. Symantec is offering to the lastest version of THINK Pascal for $99 to owners of TML pascal. (I think this price is about the same as you can buy it from one of the mail order stores). THINK Pascal 3.0 supports MacApp 2.0 (4MB of memory recommended!) plus all the goodies like integrated symbolic debugging, class browser, THINK class library.... Also, it is supposed to support Projector! I have not decided whether to upgrade yet as I am doing more C++ stuff these days.
