If I want OOP I use C++, not that... that... obsenity. :) What don't you like about Objective-C? It contains a lot fewer extensions to C than C++. It more closely resembles Smalltalk. I've heard many people scream about how nasty C++ is. I'm undecided. I use the things that I like, and ignore that I consider to be thorny. You can use C++ on the NeXT if you like. They ship a C++ compiler with the machine. -Mike
