[SOLUTION] Object Browser (#8)

From: Jamis Buck <jgb3@...>
Date: 2004-11-22 00:48:37 UTC
List: ruby-talk #121005
Well, I was kind of waiting to see what other people came up with, but 
since the list seems quiet on this topic, I guess I'll go ahead and post 
first.

This is a VERY rough implementation. It uses ruby-gtk2, and is one of my 
first projects using that interface, so I've doubtless done all kinds of 
things wrong. :) But it works.

By default, it displays the "main" object. You can see the class, 
superclass, instance/class variables, public/private/protected methods, 
and constants (where any of them apply and are non-empty).

I wanted to add the ability to modify values, but didn't quite have time 
to get that far.

This was a great quiz, though. I'd love to see a more sophisticated 
version of this. I can use mine, for instance, to do a kind of 
breakpoint in my code:

   ObjectBrowser.browse( @foo )

And the program will stop, display the window, and wait for the window 
to close before proceeding.

Anyway. Comments?
