I don't think that MetCom supports NEW or DISPOSE, N. Wirth choice to
delete these features from the language, as they required ALLOCATE, and
DEALLOCATE to be imported from another module.

NEW is ALLOCATE(x,SIZE(x))
DISPOSE is DEALLOCATE(x,SIZE(x))

Also note that TSIZE was also removed from the language, and SIZE was redefined
 to handle both variables and types (most compilers still support TSIZE).

It should not be too hard to write a script to convert them.
s/ALLOCATE(\([~,]*\),SIZE(.*))/NEW(\1)/gp
s/DEALLOCATE(\([~,]*\),SIZE(.*))/DISPOSE(\1)/gp

My vi is a little bit rusty, in MPW it would be:
replace /ALLOCATE\(([option-l,]*)option-r1,SIZE(option-x))/
"NEW(option-r1)"
replace /DEALLOCATE\(([option-l,]*)option-r1,SIZE(option-x))/
"DISPOSE(option-r1)"

(It is a little hard to some the MPW commands using Usenet which does not
have the full Macintosh Character Set).

I don't have a cute trailer**************
