I still have LSP v1.11.  I am aware that the current version is 2.01.
I am trying to decide if the upgrade is worth it (~$49 + s/h).

I am not a hard core programmer.  I have a Mac plus with 2M of RAM
and a 40M hard disk.  A while back Rich Siegal gave the following
list of enhancements:

	"New and enhanced features of version 2.0 include: a fast, multipass
  optimizing compiler which produces compact, commercial-quality code; Object
  Pascal support; increased editor flexibility for virtually unlimited program
  size; and enhanced source-level debugger; and language extensions for 
  improved compatibility with Apple's Macintosh Programmer's Workshop (MPW)
  Pascal."

fast compiler...good, but I didn't find 1.11 slow.
commercial-quality code...don't plan to sell my programs.
Object Pascal support...what does this do for me?
unlimited program size...good, but haven't run into the limit with 1.11, yet.
enhanced source-level debugger...what kind of enhancements?
language extensions for use with MPW Pascal...don't deal with MPW Pascal, don't have it.

So if this is all that the upgrade buys me, then I have serious doubts as to
the need to upgrade.  I would like those of you who have LSP 2.0 to please 
respond to me if you have an opinion of if the upgrade would be worth it
for someone in my situation.  If there are features that are not mentioned
above (and hence I don't know about them), I'd like to hear about them.

Send e-mail or postings to USENET.

Thanks,
