Light weight, command line focused

Despite having been originally created over a decade ago Class Viewer remains relevant as in my opinion it is primarly a GUI on the Java Reflections class, where I pull off package names, so you can do things like just type String for the String class versus java.lang.String which means it's easier to navigate the Java language.

And is extremely lightweight without a ton of code which also means as a single developer of the project I can easily maintain and update as needed but really only necessary if changes are made to the Java language or how things are presented like BIGGEST thing recently was change in JavaDocs weblink format with Java 8.

Command line focused. Lightweight. Class Viewer is so much just the GUI that is there.
