Below you will find a copy of a text upload that I found while prowling around GEnie, the General Electric network for information exchange. With the recent mention on the net of ObjectLogo for the Mac, and the rise in object oriented programming for the Mac in general, I thought I'd pass this on. Begin quoted text from a GEnie upload ------------------------------------------------------ Your Chance for a Free Dance With the Prettiest Turtle in Town: The Great ObjectLogo Giveaway. ObjectLogo is a new programming language from Coral Software. With ObjectLogo anyone can create complex Macintosh programs in minutes. Mac programming isn't just for experts anymore!

Box 307 Cambridge, MA 02142 About ObjectLogo: ObjectLogo combines the gentle learning environment of Logo with the power of Lisp. Instructions and procedures can be immediately compiled to 68000 code or edited in file windows. Debugging aids include a watcher (for monitoring variable values), stepper, and tracer. ObjectLogo includes the most advanced object oriented programming system on the Macintosh. Windows, menus, editors, disk and serial I/O, and (of course) turtles are implemented as customizable objects, making Macintosh programming easier than in any other language.
