Also, Zortech is now porting their C++ compiler to the Mac.  It will run
under MPW and support MacApp.  They are also supposedly developing a
stand-alone compiler/debugger environment ( probably similar to TC++ or
THINK C ) which will be released sometime later.  In any event, the people
at Zortech say the Mac C++ compiler is now in beta testing, and should be
released very soon.
