COOL: Implementation of HP's CommonObjects on top of the PCL metaclass kernel.

lang/lisp/oop/non_clos/cool/
COOL is an implementation of HP's CommonObjects on the Portable CommonLoops (PCL) metaclass kernel. As such, it provides a portable implementation of CommonObjects. It should be of particular interest to people who want to program in the mixin style supported by PCL but are also interested in trying the encapsulation style of Smalltalk, which CommonObjects supports. This version of COOL is guaranteed to work with Portable CommonLoops system date 2-24-87. A copy of this version of Portable CommonLoops is distributed along with COOL.
