Title: Clascal

OldNewLine
1+**Clascal** was the first working prototype of [[Object Pascal]] developed in 1983 by the Personal Office Systems (POS) division of Apple Computer (later renamed to **The Lisa Division**, still later to **The 32-Bit Systems Division**). It was the first true object-oriented version of [[Pascal]].
2+
3+Clascal was an extension of [[Lisa Pascal]] and strongly inspired by Xerox PARC's release of Smalltalk-80 and the language [[Modula]]. In turn it laid the foundation for the development of Apple's Object Pascal, later referred to as [[Mac Pascal]], when *Object Pascal* turned into a generic term.
