What would a IIGS user be doing with Apple Pascal?  That's the
old UCSD Pascal and no longer current.  If you want to learn a
language that'll be usable on another platform (Mac or PC) later
on, best go with a more standard Pascal.  Orca/Pascal, for
example.  Byte Works still sells it along with an excellent tutorial.
