Those tools work because the underlying execution mode is the .Net runtime,
even the case for the Java version that runs in that environment. The only
bridge there is all of those languages are using a common runtime, so the
tools don't really know what language is running. As I indicated earlier,
this really cannot be done without a full rewrite of the interpreter and
would be a Windows-only thing. Not something I'm interested in tackling,
but the code is open source, so anybody with a real desire to see this
happen can take a stab at it.
