I'm currently writing a DA in TML Pascal (v1.1) and would greatly appreciate
more info on this "goodbye kiss" from the OS.  If some one could mail me this
info or post it to the net (I think lots of people could be interested or does
the whole world get TN's :-), actualy I'm just waiting for mine I ordered them
from APDA and am waiting for them to get rolling).  Incedently, I've run into
a few bugs in the TML system - Improperly defined control record, menu's in
their sample DA don't work (problems with GetMenu and the menu parameters),
etc.  Does any one know if 2.0 is less prone to these "mistakes".  I like TML
and am currently using a friends copy until he can buy a second DD or go to
a double sided disk and plan to buy 2.0 if it looks a bit more polished.
I had a brief discussion with Carl Nelson at the A.P.P.L.E. co-op meating
and he said that TML 2.0 did not support IF DEF's (conditional compiles)
making MacApp use with TML difficult - any one know more about this? Also,
no comments on MPW I know all about it but do not have the funds for the
needed hardware (I currently own a 512K with 2 400K flops :-( ).
