To be sure, for debugging you create a coroutine then run the whole app in that coroutine state using debug hooks and yields to pause it? What happens when a wxLua app is paused at a breakpoint and an event handler is called? Don't you get an error saying something about resuming a suspended coroutine or is the coroutine not yielded to pause the execution? I would also like to understand what the advantages of the coroutine method of debugging are over the wxLua blocking socket method? In any case, normally anyone who tries to connect an event handler in a coroutine will crash their program in a very hard to debug way, especially if the coroutine they installed the callback in gets garbage collected. I would like to find a way to have it work for your case, but also not frustrate new wxLua users who might imagine that they can somehow create a "threaded" GUI app using coroutines, not understanding that events are already sent asynchronously as has happened in the past. Maybe it is enough to simply have a strongly worded comment in the documentation, but please explain a little about your debugging methods.
