I had a week of no internet access, so I had far too much time on my hands.

+2002-12-31  Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+       * ConsoleTypeDisplayer.cs: New; Display reflection information to the console
+       * CSharpNodeFormatter.cs: Most formatting information was moved to
+         LanguageNodeFormatter.cs (to permit sharing with the VBNodeFormatter)
+       * ExplicitNodeFinder.cs: Updates due to NodeFinder changes.
+       * Factories.cs: Add new "Displayer" factory, remove "Factory" from name of
+         factory objects; the fact they're in a "Factories" class should be
+               sufficient.
+       * IndentingTextWriter.cs: Ensure that if a string sent to Write or WriteLine
+         contains embedded newlines, that we indent the text after the newlines
+               appropriately.
+       * ITypeDisplayer.cs: New; Abstraction for displaying reflection information
+       * LanguageNodeFormatter.cs: Massive cleanup & Consolidation of features.
+         Now works as a control class for generating Language-like output,
+               simplifying C# and VB.NET language formatting.
+       * Makefile: Most contents moved to `makefile.core'; just sets variables and
+         forwards operation to `makefile.core'.
+       * Node.cs: Debugging ToString() implementation
+       * NodeFinder.cs: Change virtual Get* methods to Add* methods, as
+         they're supposed to Add stuff to the Collection object passed as the first
+               paramter, not actually return ("get") anything; Removed `maxDepth', as
+               it's not used in the NodeFinder.
+       * NodeFormatter.cs: Move language-like attribute formatting to
+         LanguageNodeFormatter; check that base type isn't null before accessing
+               its name; recent CVS snapshots have the base object of interfaces as the
+               null object (before it was System.Object); this may be a mono bug.
+       * NodeInfo.cs: Debugging ToString() implementation
+       * ProgramOptions.cs: Make classes public, not internal
+       * README: Updates
+       * ReflectionNodeFinder.cs: Updates due to NodeFinder changes.
+       * TestTypes.cs: More tests
+       * TypeDisplayer.cs: New; Helper implementation for ITypeDisplayer
+       * TypeFactory.cs: Trace/log the exception generated when creating a new
+         object
+       * TypeLoader.cs: Take a list of types to search for, not just a single type.
+         This simplifies looking for types, as we can do a single search for all
+               types, instead of separate searches for each type.  Also improves
+               performance.
+       * TypeReflectorApp.cs: New; Formerly ConsoleOutput.cs; sets things in motion
+       * TypeReflectorOptions.cs: Make public; Add --displayer argument
+       * VBNodeFormatter.cs: New; Displayer reflection information in VB.NET
+       * gtk: new directory for Gtk# front-end
+       * makefile.core: New; Common makefile rules shared between Makefile,
+         makefile.gnu
+       * makefile.gnu: New; makefile used on Linux, used by tools/makefile.gnu for
+         recursive makes.
+       * type-reflector.exe.config: Add new switch, sample listener
+

        * ExplicitNodeFinder.cs: Use a Switch for trace messages.
