  • Abstract
    Most object-oriented programming and scripting languages provide a keyword called self or this that allows applications to refer to the variables and functions of the current object instance. In this paper we introduce two new keywords that and those to facilitate interactive programming. The key idea behind these keywords is to make it easy to refer programmatically to those objects that are currently under manipulation in the graphical user interface.
