I just got involved with Cold so let my begin by saying Hi all! :-)
>Frobs in general are useful, just not as VR objects.
Sounds like waifs might be more suitable for this purpose. A waif
behaves much more like a normal object and won't require special
handling, yet at the same it has the benefits of a frob (in this
context).
A waif is kinda like an object, except: 1. it has exactly one parent,
its "class" 2. it only has vars, no methods 3. it has no obj# or
name 4. it's automatically destroyed when the last reference is gone
I'm currently working on a patch for waif-support in Genesis
