I'm looking for a (serious) Pascal compiler for the Machintosh II. Turbo
Pascal is inadequate because of its limitations. For instance, Turbo Pascal
only allocates 32 K bytes for variables.
I need a compiler that can handle over 50,000 lines of code and allow the
variable size to exceed 500 K bytes. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Lightspeed Pascal is very very good. It uses the Macintsosh interface very well
and is a very good Pascal compiler as well.
It's published by Think Technologies.

You may find that your larger source files will have to be broken up, and that you'll need an alternative architecture for dealing with large amounts of global data [this is a topic that's been discussed here before]. Lightspeed Pascal is a product of Symantec Corporation, and is available through most major mail-order houses. Be sure you're getting version 2.0....
