For me, the evolution of Mac programming languages and use depended on the purpose, but it generally tracked the use and growth in language development over time as the personal computer took over. Initially, Pascal was very common and shipped with the early Macs -- MacPascal was the evolution...

It is called "The Apple II Guide" -- A complete resource for users of Apple II computers -- Fall 1990 I searched -- you can find it here: https://archive.org/details/The_Apple_II_Guide_Fall_1990

I may have it. I will have to look.

Good job on getting it to work.
