Writing a cover verb for dsygv in the Lapack addon, I noticed 2 bugs with
the debugger:

0. When you enter a non-existing verb in the "name" field and press enter,
the debugger crashes J. This does not happen for the locale field.

1. The debugger seems to have issues with some types of line endings,
making newlines show up as what the console shows for (1{a.) (gmail seems
to refuse this character here). This seriously hampers debugging, as the
debugger shows all code in one single line when an error occurs or when
setting a "stop Line" in the stop manager.
An example of this can be seen taking a look at
~/addons/math/lapack/geev.ijs.
I presume it's an Unix/Windows line ending issue (I'm on Windows 8.1, 64
bit, most recent J, all addons up to date).


Best regards,

Jan-Pieter
