    I dunno Eiffel, but this looks enough like Simula that I'll give you
the Simula answer 8-)

    In your example, the WINDOW class *does* inherit all of the
attributes of TREE, including T.  When you create a new instance of
WINDOW you must specify T, as in

    newW :- NEW WINDOW[T, other formal parameters of WINDOW].
