I'm having difficulty in figuring out how to go about doing a 
"MABuild -autobuild" on a system that has only C and C++ compilers.  
I have the CD-ROM C/C++ MPW bundle (v3.2.3) with the floppy update 
to v3.2.4, and the MacApp 3.0.1 CD-ROM bundle.  

In trying to do various things, I found that I was unable to do 
an autobuild of the MacApp library:

    MABuild NewApp -autobuild -TwoOhTemplateViews

The system came back with a terminal error because I have no 
Pascal compiler.  In checking around I found that there was one 
lonely Pascal source file in the Libraries, "UPascalTool.inc1.p."  
It seems to be related to building MPW tools in Object Pascal, 
so I figured I could do without it.  However when I removed it 
and tried again, the fact that it was missing caused an error.  
I was unable to find where that source file is referenced.

I was able to continue with my project by locating the ".S7Te2T" 
precompiled library from the CD-ROM, but it bothers me that I 
can't autobuild with just C/C++.   Also, I have to play games with 
the MABuild parameters in order avoid autobuilding and use the 
precompiled libraries.  E.g. use:

    MABuild NewApp -TwoOhTemplateViews -Sym -debug

instead of 

    MABuild NewApp -TwoOhTemplateViews -debug

Does anyone know a way around this problem?  Am I missing 
something obvious?  I probably am. :-(   Any help/advice 
would be appreciated.
