What is your favorite disassembler tool in Mac OS X?

Question

I am using the otool, nm and Fraise text editor to disassemble the Mach-o binaries. My workflow at this point is pretty straightforward:

1. List the existed symbols.

nm -g

2. Get the disasm code.

otool -vt

3. Copy and paste this output to a text file.

4. Read and comment the codes in the text editor :)

I am looking for the tools that simplify the working with disasm code on Mac OS X.
