I have ported SmallEiffel to the Macintosh as a Metrowerks CodeWarrior
plug-in. The compiler, a simple fractal example, and docs can be
downloaded from:

http://www.peak.org/~jcd/eiffel/

Apprentice 6 is now available! And it is still the best and definitive

high-quality and
up-to-date source code examples. And all of the source code is either new
or updated for this release!
