StartUpList

Hi, Bob,

(1)  To see which classes are in the StartUpList, evaluate:
	SystemDictionary classPool at: #StartUpList


(2)  To see the *code* that is run on behalf of these classes at 
start-up time, browse implementors of #startUp.   In the resulting 
message-list, look only at the class-side #startUp methods that are 
associated with the classes that are in the StartUpList, as revealed 
in step 1.

[There will also be eight or ten *instance-side* #startUp methods in 
the implementors-of-startUp message-lis, such as for PopUpMenu, but 
these are not part of the system startup process, and can be ignored 
for this exercise.]


Cheers,

   -- Scott
