I have some students who will probably need to use some nonstandard (for
the Mac, that is) interactive techniques like popup menus, cursors that
don't track the mouse, and the like. I vaguely remember seeing something
called TrackPopUp which I think was a library of routines that could be
bound into a Pascal program. (This project will be done in Lightspeed
Pascal - not my idea, but things that don't fit that environment are out).

Anybody got stuff like this? I don't want them reinventing wheels.

No flames about the Apple user interface guidelines, please. There are
several good reasons for ignoring them here.
