[Cuis] Menu 'Help' / 'Useful expressions' text window --> workspace?

[H. Hirzel]

Thank you, Juan,  for adding many new 'useful expressions'.

In particular this one is interesting
    "'Anaylize memory usage by class."
    (String streamContents: [ :strm | SpaceTally new
printSpaceAnalysis: 1 on: strm ]) edit.

for comment see new thread.
