Database modeling tool for Oracle

In the line of great tools for the Oracle RDBMS, yet an other one: Schemester.

Schemester is a database modelling tool for Oracle with the capabilities of reverse engineering a diagram from a live database. It is also capable to find related tables referenced by foreign keys or references made to the table's primary key. I find this tool extremely useful when I have to find my way in an unknown database. And I use it to make prints of part of the database model.

It's a small single executable that's easy to take with you on the job. Not to worry about licences because it's freeware. I've seen Oracle consultants use this tool. It's a shame Oracle doesn't offer this little gem themselves.

Help! I've been tagged by Edward ;-)
I was hoping that I wouldn't get tagged because that would mean I would have to think about what to write.
