Mops is a full featured, stand-alone development environment for programming the Macintosh.  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.  Its interactive development environment provides for fluid and productive programming by allowing quick testing and modification of small code segments.

Mops comes with a large class library supporting many Smalltalk-like classes such as containers and all of the normal Mac

Very nice. Very Nice. I feel bad for the developer , who had such a smart mind all his life, but had his name made fun of constantly...He is not a prostitute! He is a genius!

Mops is a great way to learn programming. It's a little overshadowed by XCode, but it's one of those languages which can help you pick things up much more quickly than C.

Recommended.

It's fast. Really fast. I usually don't like OOP, but this one's fun. Actually, the only thing I can see "wrong" with it right now is the manual, which is well-written but dated. I think they'll get this one down, though.

They also underplay the value of the included source, which is just like documentation in its own right. It's refreshingly easy to read, and you will be missing out on a lot if you decide to overlook it.

Keep up the great work!

Mops is a full featured, stand-alone development environment for programming the Macintosh.  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.  Its interactive development environment provides for fluid and productive programming by allowing quick testing and modification of small code segments.

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.  AltiVec and external frameworks such as OpenGL and Mach-O are also supported.  Included is a well written manual, which is useful for the novice or expert.

Mops is Carbon-compliant and runs in PPC native mode under OS 9.x and all OS X versions released to date.  It is a subroutine threaded, optimizing Forth compiler (transparent to the programmer) resulting in programs that run very fast.
