   Just for the record, there's also an implementation of Objective-C 
for the Amiga.   It was done by someone at Calstate-Sacramento who's
name escapes me at the moment.
   Also the NextStep 2.0 version of the Objective-C compiler allows use
of C++ within an Objective-C object, perhaps making it an Objective-C++
compiler.   So you don't have to choose between Obj-C and C++, one
compiler does both.   Use the right tool for the right job, sometimes
Objective-C is best, sometimes its C++.   With the compiler on the NeXT
you have your choice.   I think this will be released as the GNU 2.0
gcc compiler, but I'm not sure.
