For an overview of all prototype-based languages I could find info
about in the net (12 at last count), visit my Prototypes page at:
http://www.physik3.gwdg.de/~rainer/comp/lang/object-based.html
As far as I know, this is the most comprehensive collection on the subject.
If anybody can suggest an addition, please don't hesitate, it can
surely use some improvements.
