Re: Complete Pascal programming contest?

Hi Jeff,

Personally I am looking forward for the reverse of "HackFest". That's
for the super geeks who still knows the in and out of everything Apple
II. For Apple II - at least in spirit - to survive, you will need
fresh blood, and that means new programmer. I think at least Apple
IIGS still have good enough graphics, and the simplicity of
programming as an alternative to new generation of young programmers.

TML/Complete Pascal is definitely a good choice for kids. I tried TML
Basic, I don't think this is good. Orca/Pascal and Orca/C is designed
primary for programmers imho (I have Orca/Pascal 2 and I really don't
like it). So this left with GSoft Basic, but the free version is not
available.
