Object Oriented programming question

[Marius Roets]

Hi everybody,

This has probably been asked before, but I could not find a way to search the archives.

From the NEWS section on the Octave home page:
** Object Oriented Programming.

    Octave now includes OOP features and the user can create their own

    class objects and overloaded functions and operators.  For
    example, all methods of a class called "myclass" will be found in
    a directory "@myclass" on the users path.  The class specific

    versions of functions and operators take precedence over the
    generic versions of these functions.

    New functions related to OOP include

      class  inferiorto  isobject  loadobj  methods  superiorto

    See the Octave manual for more details.
This description is not too clear, and I can't find any information in the Octave manual. Any pointers to a simple example, or more detailed description.

Regards
Marius
