This sounds interesting... is this Objective-C++ only available to NeXT
users? 
Does it allow multiple inheritence?  (I seem to remember that objective-C
alone
did not)  Can a class have one method written in Objective-C, and another 
written in C++?  How freely can you mix the code?

Please pardon my struggling to remember objective-C syntax, but I seem to 
recall that one of the best things about Objective-C was the run-time
binding
of calling methods.  I.e.,  you want to call the method "foo" for an
object 
"bar", you'd do: [bar "foo"]   or something like that, and if the object
"bar"
didn't have a  "foo" method, ... no harm done.  Am I correct?
