I've seen this referred to as object inheritence, esp when it's done under a classy system, but it's still proto OO... the derivation method is typically something you might see in more purely functional inspired code, but i don't think they have a name for it. proto based OO is really a generalization of many of the other systems, so i doubt there's a more fitting name. I'd rephrase your sentance rephrasing 'merely' with 'a specific case of' =) > How is it like MVC?

I saw it as separation of concerns with duck typing in the model and view, and ugliness kept contained in the controllers, IMHO not much to do with inheritence/chaining at all, but i guess that could work. -- Yuval Kogman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nothingmuch.woobling.org 0xEBD27418
