TML Pascal Returns to the Mac 
By David E. Smith, Editor & Publisher, MacTutor
[TML has returned to the Mac market with a new version of TML Pascal that runs
under MPW and supports objects and MacApp. This is the first non-APDA product to be
available from a third party that supports MacApp. This is important because it means
more widespread availability of MacApp compatible MPW tools than just through
APDA, which enjoys an Apple supported monopoly on distribution. Here is an advance
look at TML Pascal version 3.0, being announced this month at Mac Hack in Ann Arbor,
Michigan. -Ed]

Jacksonville, Fl.
Version 3.0 of the TML Pascal compiler will be a completely new implementation
of TML Pascal. The most significant change for this product is that it will be converted
to operate with the Macintosh Programmer’s Workshop (MPW) as an MPW Tool.
The following is a list of the major features provided by TML Pascal v3.0:
• Operates within the Macintosh Programmer’s Workshop
• Complete support for Object Pascal
• Compiles MacApp
• Native 68020 and 68881 code generation
• Conditional compilation
• Assembly source code output as well as object code output
• Constant expression evaluation in declarations
