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.

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!

At $79.95, ObjectLogo is already a great deal.  But we want to make it an even 
better deal.  We're giving copies away.  If you want a chance to win a copy of 
ObjectLogo, just write your name and address on a piece of paper, and get it 
to us by March 20, 1987.  The address is:

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.

The ObjectLogo math package allows free mixing of unlimited size integers, 
fractions, complex numbers, and floating point numbers.

Complete Quickdraw access is available through error-checked calls.

Direct Toolbox access is available through low-level calls.



For information and orders, write or call:
