I think this is also comparable with other development systems. (I know that TML Pascal would require 1 meg and a hard disk to use something like MacApp.) -- Larry Rosenstein Object Specialist Apple Computer AppleLink: Rosenstein1 UUCP: {sun, voder, nsc, mtxinu, dual}!apple!lsr CSNET: lsr@Apple.CSNET
