Goldberg My mother is trying to use Apple Pascal to teach a high school computer course. She tells me it complains about "procedure too long" if a procedure or main program is longer than some very small amount, maybe 60 lines (I've forgotten the exact number but it was small enough to hit her on a programming exercise intended for beginners). I have never seen it myself and am trying to give her advice long distance. It sounds to me like Apple Pascal is essentially a toy, not really meant for production or even serious computer science exercises. Is this your impression also? Bob -------
