You are absolutly right.  Useing the word support was a bad choice of
words on my part.  What I ment to say in a round about way was that
if MacApp 3.0 source is only released in C++, the people who use
THINK Pascal will have a hard time changing the MacApp source and
recompiling it if they need to.
