What is the current version of LSP? does it run with MACIIs and multifinder?
I have heard alot on the net about LSC future releases is LSP going to be
enhanced as well or is it FINISHED?
We are considering using LSP or MPW and it is a single language/two person
project does anyone have any recomindations?

The current version of Lightspeed Pascal is version 1.11; it works
on the Macintosh II and the new system software, but it does not
run correctly under MultiFinder.
Lightspeed Pascal is by no means finished. Unfortunately, I can't discuss
the new features, and I don't know exactly the timetable for the next
release; it's not far off, I do know that.
For a one-language, two-person project, use Lightspeed Pascal. The turnaround's
fast, and integrating the two sets of sources is simple and easy. I have
firsthand knowledge to back it up, but I can't talk about that either... :-)

Re: LSP status It would also be nice if the new versions of LS Pascal and C included version control tools (ie something resembling RCS would be nice!). I can hardly wait for a symbolic debugger in LS C in the way LS Pascal provides. Keep up the great work THINK!

The problem is that the LS-P environment isn't after all equal to the real environment that a program runs in. LS C comes much closer to the normal mac program environment (Of course there's the extra resource file and a lot of extra resources). I'm happy that LS C will have symbolic debugging, but I also hope that the old way of developing programs will be available. I'd be quite satisfied if it had a "no-symbol-debug-run" option as an extra. (I don't want to build the program in order to do this.) Juri Munkki jmunkki@fingate.bitnet jmunkki@santra.hut.fi
