Programing on the Macintosh

[@davidlopanful]

Just like mine. I used Pascal, assembly, fortran, c, and forth to program it.

Cool. May I ask, what materials did you use back then to learn to program it?

[@davidlopanful]

@@MacLegacyLabs Pascal was the ucsd version. the rest I really can't remember, but I'll look

@@davidlopanful Thank you a lot. If you find anything I could use as learning material I would be pleased. I have found some books, but I think it is somehow breach of the living memory of Macintosh programming. If I compare the written materials to what is being said in our lectures, there are so many tips and tricks which are not written in the official textbooks. And another thing is, I don’t even know with what book should I start and which should follow. Mostly they are focused on one topic, such as Game development, but I miss some sort of structured way how to proceed. Right now I am trying C because I have some previous experience and I think it is an easy entry point in getting familiar with the Toolbox, the programming IDEs of 90s and etc.
