-;; Base classes for EIEIO. These classes perform some basic tasks
-;; but are generally useless on their own. To use any of these classes,
-;; inherit from one or more of them.

-;;; eieio-instance-inheritor
-;;
-;; Enable instance inheritance via the `clone' method.
-;; Works by using the `slot-unbound' method which usually throws an
-;; error if a slot is unbound.
