Well, you have a number of options: run an Apple II emulator on your Mac 
and you won't have to make any changes to your program. Or make whatever 
changes are needed to run the program under a Mac "BASIC" such as 
Microsoft BASIC or Chipmunk BASIC. Or turn the code into HyperTalk and 
the program into a HyperCard stack. Since that program takes the place of 
BASIC for Mac users, my leanings go that way. You can probably get a free 
copy of HyperCard 1.2.5 (a very old version, but free, since it was part 
of the System software) from an Apple dealer.
