There is one thing that I think that should be added still and it is the variable "editor" or not necessarily editor but "variable viewer". John made a try at that, and anything even rudimentary would be nice. The reason I say that is that breakpoints just seems unfinished without such a thing. From the user's standpoint it is like, "Ok, hit a breakpoint, now what?" The right-mouse-click-option "disp (VAR)" doesn't seem to work (two things, a semicolon is placed after the "disp (VAR);" so that the contents aren't actually displayed in the command window, and also the debugger seems to leave debug mode), but more than that I think going back and forth between the editor and command window to see a variable's contents isn't as nice as having the code and variable contents visible at the same time. The nicest would be positioning the cursor over a variable and it's value appears in the tool tip...down the line maybe.
