I believe you're talking about oobr, the Object-Oriented Browser from
Infodock.  Old versions can be found bundled with pre-20.4 XEmacsen,
and (I've been away from my desk so I don't know the full story here)
Infodock has recently been released as open source in its entirety.
http://www.altrasoft.com/ for details.

None of which works on a running kernel.  YOW!

All of those tools are available separately for Linux, although
probably not at prices that typical Linux folks want (or even singly
at the VC++ bundled price).
