alice-teacher Deriving classes?

[Phil Tessier]

Thank you for your responses.
I should have included the link to the tutorial in my previous email. Here
it is now:

Adam, I misspoke when I said that I'm using "Export"; I'm using "Save to
Class File" (screenshot attached, if the mailing list let's it in). For me,
though, it doesn't provide me with an option to name the class.
James,
The link in this message is to the tutorial I originally watched. It
certainly _seems_ to apply to Alice 3.(If I'm reading his title bar
correctly, it identifies itself as Alice 3.1.
All,
Could this option have existed in early versions of Alice 3, and been
removed?
Thanks,
Phil
