One of the things I miss from PowerPlant is the "Visual Hierarchy" option available in PowerPlant's debugging gear. It allows you to, at runtime to, get a hierarchical list of all views that the app is displaying.

Could someone steer me to a similar facility that works with Cocoa's NSView hierarchies? Is there such a thing around?

$ cd /Applications/TextEdit.app/Contents/MacOS/
$ ./TextEdit -NSShowAllViews YES &
