Re: [Tads3] Listing Contents of Surfaces

Maybe so - does anyone else have an opinion about adding this? The "hider" classes in tads 2 certainly seemed to get a fair amount of use, and this has at least passing similarity to those.
Yes. Probably the scoping mechanism & isKnownBy() should be used for implementing under-hiders. (They should be out of scope until they're known.) The Tads 2 way of implementing this is sort of hacky, and I think because of that creates problems for new coders from time to time.
