[plt-scheme] Re: Object system

Dear Matthew,

it seems that no code will be executed *after* a call to the "renamed" super method.

In this particular case it could be because a call to the super-method (on-subwindow-char) returns *void*.

Best regards

Guenther

The "sup" in the example below is a call to the renamed super method "on-subwindow-char", the (send x get-value) doesn't get executed.
