Does anyone have any object-oriented (Think C 4.0) dialog handling
code that I could skeletonize and use in my code?  There don't
seem to be any examples in the Distribution.

I am new to object oriented programming.  I have produced a new class
which handles physical quantities (scalars, no vectors yet), including
units.  This not only allows you to convert among unit systems, it
lets you multiply a speed in furlongs/fortnight by a mass in stones,
then divide by a time in ticks, and get the result (a force) in poundals.
It keeps track of all the dimensions.  I don't want to post it yet (what if
everyone posted helloworld.c to comp.sources.misc?) but if anyone needs such
a class, just ask.  If anyone who asks is not a rank beginner, I would
be interested in a critique.

Thanks in advance.
