    I am also interested if you know of an Object Oriented Development system
    for the Mac.

There are two of which I am aware.

MacApp and Object Pascal are distributed by Apple through APDA, a user group,
that with Apple's blessing, sells Apple and third party developer products.
Object Pascal is Pascal extended (with the help of Niklaus Wirth) to include
classes and whatnot.  MacApp, the expandable application, defines standard
Macintosh classes and methods.  Both MacApp and Object Pascal are used by Apple
in developing the Macintosh operating system and other products.  MacApp and
Object Pascal run in the MPW (Macintosh Programmers Workshop) environment. APDA,
290 SW 43rd St. Renton, WA 98055 (206) 251-6548


The other is Neon, a Forth-like language, designed and sold by Kiyra
(spelling?) Systems.  Sorry, no address, but most Macintosh software stores
ought to be able to sell you a system.
