Development System with disks and CD

The Papers consist of draft copies of some of his publications, various miscellaneous papers, photos and flyers, as well as reprints of many of his professional articles. There are also draft versions of books by others he reviewed and the Rascal Program papers with floppies, slides, and other computer storage devices. Rascal was developed at Reed College, member institution of the Apple University Consortium. Rascal (“Real-time Pascal”) is a Pascal-like language developed exclusively for the Apple Macintosh. The Rascal Project appeared in the Fall of 1984, when Scott Gillespie, Greg Stein [and Richard Crandall] began work to offer real-time support for all forms of Macintosh I/O, handled at a fundamental level. (from ‘Introduction of the Rascal Project’ by R.E. Crandall January, 1986.) The Rascal Program Papers consist of primers, manuals as well as computer diskettes that were designed to help computer programmers learn the development system. There are also CD copies of the diskettes. In addition there are color slides of Macintosh screen shots illustrating computer applications of the system as well as Reed campus locations and personnel involved with the project.
