[comp.lang.c++] C++ for Mac Programmer's Workshop Wanted

elwell@osu-eddie.UUCP (05/06/87)

I seem to remember seeing a posting a while back that said that someone had
ported cfront etc. to the Macintosh Programmer's Workshop (MPW).  I'd like
to know (a) if this is true and (b) if so, where I can get my hands on a copy.

Thanks,

Yes, that's true.  Neil Rhodes did a port; I'm currently trying out a
beta version (actually I was reading news while waiting for a C++
compilation...) and so far it seems to work pretty well;
congratulations, Neil!

Neil's address looks something like neil%beowulf@ucsd.edu.
