+* Added partial classes, a la C# and VB. This enables class (and struct) declarations to be split across files. This can be useful for organizing generated code or even manually written code based on purpose. ticket:10
+.code
+        # file Foo.cobra
+        class Foo
+                is partial
+                
+                var _name as String

+                pro name from var
+        
+        # file Foo.gen.cobra
+        class Foo

 * Added new comment markers /# ... #/ which can be used for block comments and inline comments. Block comments must start at the beginning of a line and can be used to comment out multiple lines of source. They can be nested. Inline comments also start with /# and end with #/, but within the same line. They can be used to comment out a portion of a line. Regular end of line comments are still available and still the norm.
