PowerMops 6.2

Mops is a full featured, stand-alone development environment for programming the Macintosh written by Mike Hore.<br /><br />Inspired by Smalltalk and the commercial language Neon, Mops is based on Forth with extended object-oriented features such as multiple inheritance, early and late binding, persistent objects, and garbage collection.<br /><br />Its interactive development environment provides for fluid and productive programming by allowing modification and quick testing of small code segments.<br /><br />Mops comes with a large class library supporting many Smalltalk-like classes such as containers and all of the normal Mac graphical user interface elements. There is seamless integration of Macintosh Toolbox calls.<br /><br />AltiVec and external frameworks such as OpenGL and Mach-O are also supported. Included is the complete source code and a well-written manual, which is useful for the novice or expert.<br /><br />Mops is Carbon-compliant and runs under Mac OS 9.x and all Mac OS X versions released to date. It is a subroutine threaded, optimizing Forth compiler (transparent to the programmer) resulting in programs that run very quickly.<br /><br />Over seventeen years since its inception, the program is still actively maintained by the original author along with a corps of dedicated volunteers.<br /><br />Even if you never thought you had a reason to try something different, Mops might be just what you are looking for!<br />
