Well, there are a few C++ libraries out there such as YakIcons for the
PC, though these are graphics oriented.  As for classes which are
geared towards representing classes of everyday objects, I don't know
of any.  I've begun working upon my own model of such objects -- some
time later today, I plan to post some of my ideas to comp.lang.c++,
where I'm sure people will recoil from the strange way I've implimented
call-backs and runtime method calls.  If the criticisms received are
valid, I'll probably try another way.

The model that I use would work on Un*x as well, of course, and most
of the workings of the objects should work as well except the graphical
parts.  I haven't actually worked on representing any items yet -- still
working upon the way that objects would interact with each other (this
is for a quest game -- objects should be able to interact with each other
in a variety of ways.)
