[Komodo-3-beta] "Edit with" doesn't make Komodo top window
I'm glad to see the interactive shell, but it doesn't appear to do
what I was hoping for.
1) I want to be able to manipulate the variables of a script that
I'm currently debugging. For example, I'd like to be able to add an element
to an existing array--something that I at least haven't figured out how to
do with the Debug/Locals window.
2) Also, if I begin debugging a script, then click on F12 to open
the default interactive shell (perl), and then click on (e.g.) Step In,
instead of debugging continuing in the existing Debug window, a new instance
of Debug is opened.
3) While I'm on the subject, another bug, reported in 31473, still
exists. Actually, I admit, you might not consider it a bug (I never got any
feedback after the original submission), but it's certainly undesirable
behavior from my point of view.
Suppose debugging is started on a script (A) and then a second
script (B) is opened in Komodo, so B has focus. If (for example) Step In
is clicked on, the original script (A) is given focus and debugging
continues there, rather than a debugging session starting on the script that
currently had focus (B). I could accept that only one debugging session can
take place at a time (although the behavior reported in (2) above seems to
belie that), but I'd rather have a message telling me that I have to finish
my first debugging session before I can start a new one than to have a step
taken in a debugging session I might really not want to continue with yet.
