Oberon simultaneously refers to a modular, extensible operating system and an object_oriented programming language developed for implementing it. Both were conceived originally for the Ceres personal workstation, but have since been implemented on a number of other machine architectures using a portable compiler front_end as a common starting point. The Oberon language is the direct successor of Pascal and Modula-2 and was developed by the same designer, Prof. Dr. Niklaus Wirth. MacOberon is a complete implementation of the Oberon language and operating system for Apple Macintosh II computers. It is built on top of the existing Macintosh operating system and runs as a single process in a MultiFinder environment.
