Stéphane, BobsBrowser is an alternative browser, so isn't going to replace ever the traditional browser tools, but there are a couple of cool things about it:
-You can use it to quickly survey class hierarchies http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/squeak-dev/1999-April/001103.html -IIRC the Whisker browser used his hierarchical list, but in Whiskler they are attached to a window while in BobsBrowser the lists are detached (although you do not have the multiple views in one window feature) -As an alternative way to navigate the entire system, and I particularly value the Driller (click in the "special items" (*) to open it). -If you are not super fan of classifications, you may find it more comfortable.
