A funny thing for a cookie monster to want - to preserve and look
instead of devouring and crushing? There are tools for site
management (like in Dreamweaver I believe) that give various
overviews but stop and consider how you might better do it
without special software (so that if you really need such
software, you will be better able to use and appreciate it at
least).

If you organise your site well as it grows, you will have a nice
hierarchical system of files and folders. This set is plainly
visible in most OSs, (special mention is deserved here for the
brilliant column view in Mac OS X). A good understanding of this
general pattern might be sufficient for your needs. Personally I
would find it most confusing to try to picture a map of all the
actual links. It would be useless spaghetti (no offense intended
Luigi...).
