Classes as Records
------------------
+.. index:: :> (coercion)

We allow the definition of *Structures with Inheritance* (or classes as records)
by extending the existing :cmd:`Record` macro. Its new syntax is:
.. cmdv:: Record {? >} @ident {? @binders} : @sort := {? @ident} { {+; @ident :{? >} @term } }
- The first identifier `ident` is the name of the defined record and
- `sort` is its type. The optional identifier after ``:=`` is the name
- of the constuctor (it will be ``Build_``\ `ident` if not given).
- The other identifiers are the names of the fields, and the `term`
+ The first identifier :token:`ident` is the name of the defined record and
+ :token:`sort` is its type. The optional identifier after ``:=`` is the name
+ of the constuctor (it will be :n:`Build_@ident` if not given).
+ The other identifiers are the names of the fields, and :token:`term`
are their respective types. If ``:>`` is used instead of ``:`` in
the declaration of a field, then the name of this field is automatically
declared as a coercion from the record name to the class of this
- field type. Remark that the fields always verify the uniform
+ field type. Note that the fields always verify the uniform
inheritance condition. If the optional ``>`` is given before the
record name, then the constructor name is automatically declared as
a coercion from the class of the last field type to the record name
