F-Script provides an object (called the "Object Browser") which is
somewhat related to what you describes. It does not list the instance
variables, but lists all the methods implemented by an Objective-C
object. It allows you to interactively invoke a method by clicking on
it, and to manipulate the result of this invocation in the same way.
This object is provided in a framework (open source) and, consequently,
can be embedded into your own applications.
There is an article on the O'Reilly MacDevcenter that describes this
object browser:
