I am about to buy a Mac LC and will be looking for a C++ compiler.  When
I read the product definition for the MPW product it appears that I will
require the MPW environment AND the MPW C compiler as well.

1.  Is this true?

2.  How much memory will all this require?

3.  How much of a dog will the LC be for programming (C++, C, MacApp)?

4.  Is there another C++ compiler that I should look at instead?

5.  Did I miss anything?  Will I need some other software as well such as the
toolkit or something else?
