> They basically immediately regretted using pascal and started a march towards C and basically gave up on pascal before the powerpc. Nonsense. MPW Pascal and Think Pascal were well supported developer tools, and a lot of third-party developer code was written in them during the 80's. Photoshop (1987) was originally written in Pascal! Apple's Pascal dialect had object extensions that made OOP simpler than with C or standard Pascal. Pascal started to leave the building circa 1991, when C++ became viable for OOP. Even then, Metrowerks CodeWarrior supported native Pascal compilation for PowerPC in 1993/4. |
