Ok Jim, a few minutes of googling make it hard to say Mac OS was
definitely written in Assebler vs Pascal, esp. as it changed across
versions. What I could find was:
- big chunks of the OS itself were likely written in Assembler
- Some of the utilities (e.g. MacPaint) blended in Pascal
- the API calls used Pascal as the example language for making calls,
which is probably what I was thinking of.
