As a matter of fact, yes. I was simply stating the fact that
Macintosh Pascal is no longer supported (by Apple, who's supposed to support
it), and that Lightspeed Pascal is the best alternative, since it's
100% source-compatible with Macintosh Pascal. For now, ignore the
fact that THINK pays me. :-) They pay me for what I do for customer
support, and not for what I say on the net. No free advertising from
*this* guy. :-|

Thank you for your kind words, and I shall pass them along to
the person who's taking the blame-- uh, working on LSP. :-)

No one writes programs that work right the first time. If they did,
I'd be out of a job.
