Hi, Chris,

Check out Torge Husfeldt's snippet contributed last October, which 
produces precisely what you're asking for:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/squeak/message/35328

The essence of Torge's code is preserved in a method I subseuently 
wrote for the standard image, Utilities class >> methodsWithInitials: 
(in which I erroneously credited Göran rather than Torge for the 
original snippet -- sorry, guys.)

FWIW, here's a printout derived from running that method in a 
Squeak3.3a image.  Most of the 4894 methods methods with <no time 
stamp> predated the advent of the time-stamp mechanism.

Cheers,

   -- Scott
