Just one question. If an object would have both per-object inheritance (.ISA), and per class inheritance (@ISA), which one would have precedence? If there's a conflict, a method exists both for a superclass and for an object superclass (i.e. through .ISA), which list would be checked first? Which method would be picked, and executed? FWIW, I think I'd vote for .ISA, as it is more individually tied to this particular object. The other one is generic. -- Bart.
