[Tutor] Already Initialized Object Inheritance?

[WolfRage]

Unfortunately I am not able to inherit "stdscr" using that method. As
Python returns with an error stating that "stdscr" is not defined. This
error is returned at run time and by the compiler prior to actual
execution. If you would like I can write a quick example that will
generate the error message for that method.
