IMO the old debugger is way more intuitive. When I used the debugger of Eclipse for java I was lost. When I used Spec debugger I thought "Oh, this is not so hard in fact". And I lose the feeling with GTDebugger. And the debugger is one of the main source of interest for newbies. Maybe we could have a button on the spec Debugger "Switch to GTDebugger"? -- Cyril Ferlicot http://www.synectique.eu 165 Avenue Bretagne Lille 59000 France
