No subject

gather that I need to implement, set and register a custom snip-class%
object for my custom editor-snip.

Since I am not, at this stage, adding anything to editor-snip% I would like
to reuse the editor-snip% write method and the editor-snip-class% read
method. Since editor-snip-class% is a private class I do not understand how
I can extend it.

Is there a way to reuse the editor-snip-class% functionality without
cut-and-paste?

I notice that editor-snip-class% uses a private top-level var
"extended-editor-snip%" to hold the actual class of the snip that it
creates. Is there any way to leverage this ?

I hope that I missed something obvious - there is a lot of machinery in
WXME but nothing that makes this easy.
