Word description
Defines a new Objective C class. Instance methods are defined with the METHOD: parsing word.

This word is preferred to calling define-objc-class, because it creates a class word in the cocoa.classes vocabulary at parse time, allowing code to refer to the class word in the same source file where the class is defined.
