Ok, I'll expand:
I've seen some rumours that there will be a C++ compiler available when
MPW 3.0 hits the streets sometime during 1st quarter. (?) The rumours
also mentioned ongoing work to port MacApp to C++.
The rumours said nothing about whether this would be a complete C++,
or not (some kind of stripped down version ?).
If the above indeed *is* true (with a complete C++), then I see no
reason *not* to impatiently wait for MPW 3.0, and then quickly sell
my dog to *get it* !
:-)
Please enlighten me.
