Yeh I looked at it a while back, it's like a higher level version of Objective
C (Objective C being C with Smalltalk type OO extensions that was quite big
with NeXT machines) except with a greater emphasis on message passing. The
only real new thing there is that they try to concentrate on extensible
classes by letting you tack on methods after class definition. Why exactly
are you looking for an OO compilable language?
