Two things, one trivial, the other on debug.
Trivial. In JQt - I've only noticed yesterday/today, so I THINK it's a
beta-n feature:
Intermittently, I type a function call, at the bottom of the terminal
screen, which would
normally produce a result immediately below, something like
i.4
0 1 2 3
but find I'm waiting for the result because a blank line appears with
the result hiding a
further line below; it isn't revealed until the window is scrolled down.
Debug.
I'm probably not "savvy with the debugger" as you'd like me to be; I
just persist in using it
as I have for the last few years: in JQt, evoked with ctrl-K.
I've just tried it on a minimal function in response to your query. I
had been thinking
that setting a stop-line and then running tended to finish up on an
adjacent line. That
might still be the case in earlier betas, but not now.
Here's my little functino - I mistyped, but perhaps it's appropriate!
The function is ok -
it doesn't do much but returns with no error. Just trying debug to see
what happens.
zzzz
3 : 0
ai =. y
rk =. /:/: ai
lks =. /:~each a:,~ }.< \. rk
)
I type ctrl-K, and set the stop line at
rk =. /:/: ai
... and then run zzzz on a list of six integers, eg ?~ 6.
Sure enough, it does stop at the correct line. BUT none of the three
step tabs work.
I can't step over or into or out. In fact, nothing that I normally use
works except
the two arrows, back and forward. I CAN close the debug window, but
then it
will not open again, whether with ctrl-K or with Run/Debug.
This might be system dependent, so:
JVERSION
Engine: j902/j64avx2/windows
Beta-n: commercial/2020-11-21T12:09:32
Library: 9.02.06
Qt IDE: 1.8.7/5.12.7(5.12.7)
Platform: Win 64
Installer: J902 install
InstallPath: c:/d/j902
Contact: www.jsoftware.com
I haven't tried the dbg options, as I'm not familiar with them.
Cheers,
Mike

The changes in beta-n are code rearrangement for debug. If you are savvy
