Reading method text

[Alan Schmidt]

Omnis support gave me a nice idea of utilizing the Find and Replace via code to locate exactly what I'm looking for.

Didn't know that was possible. Cool.

Thank you all for your suggestions.

    Hi Alan,

    A method is generally available at any level from a class down to 
    objects within a class, so yes, you would have to recursively iterate 
    down into them to get to all methods in an application.

    Also note, as no one else mentioned it, you can also get each method 
    line separately... look in $methodlines

    Use notation inspector, this will show you quickly what is available, 
    might help you know what is there.
