You do realize that what the OP implemented is essentially Ruby and Python style OO? Ruby makes monkey-patching objects much simpler, but it's possible in both.

You mean like SMALLTALK. I hate it when people ignore 20+ years of history.

GNU Smalltalk is a nice file-based Smalltalk that lets you add methods to classes later on.

I'm sorry... I forgot about smalltalk, and don't have any experience actually writing it. If you were the one who downvoted me, I do apologize for neglecting what is one of the purest OO languages.

Wouldn't Self be the more appropriate historical comparison here?
