[comp.lang.smalltalk] Smalltalk for Mac

jl3j+@andrew.cmu.edu (John Robert Leavitt) (09/16/88)

Question folks... is there (anywhere) a Smalltalk for the Macintosh (II pref)?

Or possibly a C++, although I would prefer Smalltalk, for mac?

I've been just looking around and I can't seem to find one... Help...

Also, although this isn't comp.newprod  (:-)

Xerox is selling The Analyst!  As far as I know this has not been available to
the public for very long.

contact:  Evelyn M. Van Orden
          Smalltalk-80 Software Products Supervisor
          Xerox Special Information Systems
          P.O. Box 5608
          Pasadena, California  91107

The system is available on Mac II, Sun-2/-3, Tek 4405/6, Xerox 8010/1108, and
6085/1186 platforms.

For those of you who don't know of it, this is an integrated set of packages
built in Smalltalk, complete with ST source code that does:

   -> Information Center   -> Business Graphics     -> Clocks
   -> Text Editing         -> Spreadsheets          -> Calendars
   -> Document Layout      -> Outlines              -> On-line Atlas
   -> Report Generation    -> Personal Databases    -> Expert Systems
   -> Maps and Images      -> Printing              -> Terminal Emulation

I am not connected with Xerox in any way, and I can't even vouch for whether
this package is as good as it sounds or not.  It sounds like Xerox's answer to
Microsoft Works in Smalltalk.
