For those of you searching for a quantitative evaluation of the
completeness of Jeanne's documentation, do a search for space (just
hit the space bar) in the "Search Revolution Documentation" plug-in
in RunRev 2.0.

You will find: "3052 topics containing " "

Presumably this is a complete list. Astonishing!

Moral: Be careful what you search for. In my search for space I have
learned what the Sorcerer's Apprentice learned.

P.S. In RunRev 2.0 I find that Rev often freezes when  "Script
debugger mode" is selected from the development menu. (Command period
to unfreeze.) And when in the debugging mode, the "Step over" very
often "Steps into." (I switch back to 1.1.1 for debugging.) Anyone
else with these problem?  (Mac OS 9, G4 PowerBook.)

Also, a small cross-platform issue. In OS 9, the "/" as part of a
menu item, results in a keyboard shortcut. In OS X, "/" is just
another character.

Same problems with the debugger on Windows 2k and XP (home and prof):
1) Revolution seems to freeze when debugging large scrits (say > 2000 lines) operating on large stacks; it doesn't actually freeze, it just became very, very slow
2) "step over" actually step into user-defined commands and function most of the times, very annoying
That's on 2.0.1 professional.
A good debugger is a priority for a professional scripting environment.
