By strange co-incidence, I've just experienced a similar problem, that I've
never seen before.
Slightly rearranging my previous example...
Object >> myTest
"Object new myTest"
self inform: 'test'.
self halt.
evaluating the comment pops up 'test' but doesn't open a debugger at the
"self halt".
It was working earlier today, but since then I had an episode which opened
a large number of debug windows.
I guess it could somehow be related.
Actually its worse, Spotter doesn't show any contents,
and "1 inspect" from Playground does nothing, although that does work from
the old Workspace.
All a bit strange. I'll move to fresh Image.
I can upload this Image if someone cared to give it a once over.
btw, version info...
