the complaint for lightspeed pascal of
>- does not recognize the newer toolbox routines and constants
is partially wrong, the library ROM85 provides most of thes{, and
other libraries provide many more.  Although the Mac II libraries
don't seem to be fully supported.
I have at least 2 complaints to add
- no undo
- 32K source code size limit.
{You shoule try MPW Pascal, it offers language features unavailable
in any other compiler, such as functions returning records, and
object pascal, just to name a couple.
For those who have been asking, MPW is available exc{usively from
APDA, the Apple Programmers and Developers Association.  They
can be reached at 206/251-6548.  Anyone who programs the Mac should
join APDA because they are the only place to get many of the tools
needed to program the Mac.
