The Guide language is an object-oriented language dedicated for programming distributed applications on top of the Comandos platform. This language faithfully reflects all the capabilities of the Comandos model. It combines the facilities of a strongly typed object model with a powerful computational model. Key features of the language are: separation between types and classes, conformant subtyping, distribution transparency, concurrent activities, synchronization mechanism for shared objects, and exception handling. This paper presents the design choices for the Guide language and discusses programming experience gained from the use of the language for the construction of distributed applications.
