+ (NSString*) description
The description factory method describes the class
of the receiver. In the default GNUstep implementation, this
simply returns the name of the class as an NSString object.
+ (NSString*) descriptionWithLocale: (NSDictionary*)aLocale
Standards: GNUstep
The default (NSOBject) implementation of this method simply calls
the description method and discards the locale
information.
+ (NSString*) descriptionWithLocale: (NSDictionary*)aLocale indent: (unsigned int)level
Standards: GNUstep
The default (NSObject) implementation of this method simply calls
the descriptionWithLocale: method and discards the
level information.
+ (NSString*) descriptionWithLocale: (NSDictionary*)aLocale indent: (unsigned int)level to: (id<GNUDescriptionDestination>)output
Standards: GNUstep
The default (NSObject) implementation of this method simply calls
the descriptionWithLocale:indent: method and appends
the value returned by that method to the output object.

- (NSString*) description
The description method describes the reciever.
In the default GNUstep implementation, this returns an NSString
object giving the name of the class of the receiver and the
hexadecimal representation of the recievers address enclosed
in angle brackets.
Generally, classes other than NSObject will override this method
to provide a more informative description of their instances.
- (NSString*) descriptionWithLocale: (NSDictionary*)aLocale
Standards: GNUstep
The default (NSOBject) implementation of this method simply calls
the description method and discards the locale
information.
- (NSString*) descriptionWithLocale: (NSDictionary*)aLocale indent: (unsigned int)level
Standards: GNUstep
The default (NSObject) implementation of this method simply calls
the descriptionWithLocale: method and discards the
level information.
- (NSString*) descriptionWithLocale: (NSDictionary*)aLocale indent: (unsigned int)level to: (id<GNUDescriptionDestination>)output
Standards: GNUstep
The default (NSObject) implementation of this method simply calls
the descriptionWithLocale:indent: method and appends
the value returned by that method to the output object.
Property-list classes (NSString, NSArray, NSDictionary and
NSData) will override this method in order to efficiently
write descriptions of themselves into property lists.
