I've been using my own error-reporting for so long I can't recall seeing the default standalone
handling.
I have made a couple of quickies where I just used LC's error reporting, but clumsy as that
design is at least the output from the "Send Report" button is more useful than the raw list of
triplet integers. >
How has such ungraceful error handling become acceptable?
Why is the least useful thing the easiest for new developers to do?
Shouldn't it be easy for LC devs to deliver a great application experience?
I can't remember a time when it *didn't* report the triplets outside of the IDE. That's why you
and I wrote the Error Lookup stack. ;)
