When you're defining classes, you've probably always left the first word in
the class definition template as "Object".  Change that "Object" to your
superclass name, e.g., "MyClass".

----

"How do I create a subclass?" has been a common question in my class, and
there's a better answer on our "Tips on Squeak" page in our CoWeb (it's a
Swiki, but with a more pronounceable name :-)

We're about half-way through our quarter now, and the websites are starting
to have some useful information in them.  If folks looking for
How-To-Learn-Squeak are interested, you're welcome to wander around.  Our
main class website is at http://www.cc.gatech.edu/classes/cs2390_98_winter/
(This is where assignments are posted, news, etc.)

The CoWeb is at http://guzdial.cc.gatech.edu:8080/cs2390  The "Tips on
Squeak" page is pretty active with lots of questions (and answers!), and
there are scattered tips all over the place (like how to do a case
statement in Smalltalk).  The exciting thing for me is how the students are
taking over this space and making it their own -- e.g., the "Hot Topic
Pointer" on the Front Page was invented by a student, as was the
TeamFortress sign-up page and the real Sandbox in the Sandbox page, and
lately, questions about Squeak are as likely to be answered by another
student as by me.
