<div>If I remember correctly, the row of buttons in System
Browsers that begins with "browse" and "senders" used to end
with a "show..." button. Was that functionality removed or
moved to somewhere else? I had written the following notes
about it:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The "show..." button displays a popup list of ways the
selected item can be displayed in the bottom pane. Each option
is represented by a checkbox, but only one can be selected.<br>
<br>
The default option is "source" which merely displays the
source code of the selected method. This is typically the
desired choice.<br>
<br>
Selecting "documentation" only displays the signature and
comment for the selected item. When there is no comment, it
displays "Has no comment".<br>
<br>
Selecting "prettyPrint" displays the code for a method in
a nicely formatted way, but doesn't actually modify the code.<br>
<br>
Selecting "lineDiffs", "wordDiffs", "linePrettyDiffs", or
"wordPrettyDiffs" has the same functionality as described
earlier for "Recent versions" windows.<br>
<br>
Selecting "decompile" displays code that is similar to the
source code, but variable names are changed. Parameter
variable names are replaced by `arg1`, `arg2`, and so
on. Local variable names are replaced by `temp1`, `temp2`, and
so on. It's not clear when this would be useful.<br>
<br>
Selecting "byteCodes" displays the byte codes generated by the
method source code. This could be useful for evaluating the
efficiency of the code.<br>

Hi Mark,<br>
<br>
It was moved to the right-click menu on the code pane. I think it
makes more sense there.<br>
