  In general, I'd recommend you to ask "why", "how", and other related
information with a question.  That would make the question easier to
answer and more interesting.

  Here, what you can get in Squeak is:

  * Open a browser.
  * Select a class.  In this case, select "Object" in "Kernel-Objects"
    category.
  * Click on the "?" button of the browser in between "instance" and
    "class" toggle buttons.
  * Click on the same "?" button one more time.

Then, you'll get the text-based "chart" of the class hierachy.  You
can do the same thing to any class, so it would be better than printed
version.  (Of course, if you want, you can print out this 16 hundred
line chart.)

  Hope this helps,

-- Yoshiki
