Pivot.new - Take a Looksee at how a Ruby Object got its Methods

Looksee is a new gem by George Ogata that examines the method lookup path of any object. To use it add require looksee shortcuts to your ~ .irbrc. This will add a lp “lookup path” method to your irb environment. When passed an object lp prints out a colored display showing where each of an object s methods lives.
