It takes only a few hours with Smalltalk to learn that Smalltalk uses
its own terminology for a lot of things, and then how to search for such
things, regardless of their name.

What you are asking for is something that would be useful for only
those first few hours, and then be a maintenance clutter for the
remaining years of programming.
