It doesn't show inherited properties and their inheritance status. I 
find this a very important information on objects. See 
http://lingo.uib.no/v5/save.html

That is nice. I have highlighting in greps (see 
http://lingo.uib.no/v5/accept.gif) as well as linking to the results, 
and in addition to that, markup of the grepped lines. I have considered 
doing this for complete verb code, but never came around to doing it. I 
have seen the very nice markup that MOO Canada has done.

Why not a v5 package as well? Why not offering this tool for v5?

Please do. Can't find it - have you put it there already?
