For the new debugger interface, I am hoping to provide a more stable window
configuration for the debugger interface. One possible solution is, for
each application that you debug, the JDE creates a separate debugger frame
divided from top to bottom into the following windows:
source window
current stack window
debugger message window
user/application interaction window
The source window would always show the source file in which the
application last stopped, with a line cursor pointing to the line where the
app stopped; the stack window would show the state of the current stack in
which the app was last suspended; the debugger message window would show
debugger status output and simple informational messages; and the
user/application interaction window would be application input and output.
