- Unfortunatly, you can't upgrade THINK Pascal 2 to program for system 7. You
- may be able to find libraries and interfaces for system 7, but TP v2 lacks the
- GLUE code required for new toolbox calls.
- Pascal v3 can be upgraded for System 7. Their are public domain updaters that
- update v3.0 with the needed GLUE code, and libraries and interfaces are also
- available via FTP or from BBSs (and CD-ROMs).
-
- I use THINK Pascal 4.01, which I got at a educational discount for only $80
- (Canadian). It is worth it. It's faster, produces tighter code, and has a
- TCL upgrade that is fairly bug-free!
