Basic Object System

   <programming> (BOS) A {C}-callable library that implements the
   notion of {object} and which uses {Tcl} as its {interpreter}
   for interpreted {methods} (you can have "compiled" methods in
   C, and mix compiled and interpreted methods in the same
   object, plus lots more).  You can subclass and mix in existing
   objects using BOS to extend, among other things, the set of
   {tk} {widgets}.  BOS is a {class}-free object system, also
   called a prototype-based object system; it is modelled loosely
   on the {Self} system from {Stanford University}.
