No doubt, but in general, when people use the term "atomic" w/r/t
computing, they mean indivisible. For example, database transactions
conform to the "ACID" test - atomic, consistent, isolated, and
durable.

Well, while they're generally the same sort of thing, they can be
different - in many languages, a string isn't really a primitive type
but represents an instance of a String object or an array of
characters, etc. I think the point of calling them "atomic"

I'm confused why you would need to look at more than one project at a time, and
you can switch projects very quickly in FD by using Recent Projects.
It's well established the debugger is limited to tracing, which is generally
good enough for most of the time.

Yes, it's the same back-end used by Flex Builder, if I'm not mistaken. Fdb

The idea of integrating a GUI for fdb into FlashDevelop has been

The bottom line is, you can use Flex Builder to do your debugging if you need
it, but for coding, which is what you spend the majority of your time doing, all

I'm on the 50/50 team, using flexBuilder/mac at working and
