I would like to create and import a class in gscript. Here is some non-functional pseudo code to explain what I'm trying to do:

class_name WordPrinter

var my_word: String

func _init(word: String)
  my_word = word

func print_word()
  print(my_word)

const word_printer = import("./word_printer.gd").new("Hello World")

word_printer.print_word()

I've found various tutorials on classes and imports, but I have yet to find a straightforward code example that works. Here are some places I've looked:

• https://www.javatpoint.com/godot-classes-in-gdscript
• https://coderwall.com/p/anrtcg/how-to-import-script-in-godot
• https://godottutorials.com/courses/introduction-to-gdscript/godot-tutorials-gdscript-15/
• https://gdscript.com/tutorials/classes/

The second link above does show working code, but the imported class does not have any type definitions, and is not very useful.
