#2MPW is the Macintosh Programmer's Workbench.
I had forgotten about these.
I think my first real push with MPW was using it as an environment to host the AT&T C++ compiler, which at that time was still a bunch of preprocessor macros written by Bjarne himself.

I was a cfront beta site using MPW; for people that don't know, that was the self-compiling C++ from C, before the first AT&T C++ compiler, in the late 1980s.

#9Ahh, I saw the "too many errors on one line" report once when playing with MPW.
A very underrated, idiosyncratic, clever development environment, somehow more reminiscent of Poplog than anything else I've used.
