This is _really_ neat. However, I'm not sure how you will
access the object from a function.

For example, can I do this?

    function out=is_boiling()
       out = this > 100;
    endfunction

    x= new_temperature_degrees_celcius( 50 );

    disp( x.is_boiling() );

Would it use a C++ish "this" syntax for the object,
or would it use a Perlish first parameter?

Thanks
