Chuck,

Thanks for the feedback.  I apologize for the Leopard only  
requirement.  I was never able to grasp the concept of release/retain,  
but I know GC, so I made it GC style.  Unfortunately it cuts out users  
like yourself from using the application.

Actually, you can see monop style output by opening the info pane.   
For example, check out -> http://www.binarymethod.com/files/TypeRefleX3.swf

As for the open source Cocoa# app.  I'm afraid I don't have the  
patience to try converting it from ObjC to Mono.

If anyone wants the source (it's in ObjC) you can get it here
http://binarymethod.svnrepositories.com/svn/typereflex/trunk

or if you just wanna view it
http://binarymethod.svnrepository.com/typereflex/trac.cgi/browser/trunk

Later,
Tim
