The unopened shrink wrapped package on my desk (1 of 10) says SYMANTEC
Macintosh Pascal. (We use it for one of our stage1 computing courses).
It arrived a couple of days ago. Symantec took over development at
about version 2 (I think). The current version is version 3. It is for
academic use only.
For those of you who know version 2, you also know version 3 except
for a few less bugs and one or two minor features.


>Macintosh Pascal is interpreted, THINK Pascal is compiled.
