In the following docstring, shouldn't it say "Without this method, it would
NOT be possible..."?:


"""inheritedAttribute(class,name) -- Get an inherited attribute

Get an attribute that would be inherited if the given (extension)
class did not define it.  This method is used when overriding
inherited methods.  It provides 2 advantages over accessing

attributes directly through a superclass:

1. The superclass need not be known,

2. The superclass may be a Python class.  Without this method, it would
   be possible to override methods inherited from python classes because
   unbound methods gotten from Python classes cannot be called with
   extension class instances."""
