[Cuis-dev] Simpler debugger view

[Hilaire Fernandes]

Hi Hernán,

Yes, I will only want a DebuggerPane to temporary replace the 
SmalltalkEditor in the DrGeo code dialog. To have a kind of ubiquitous 
simplified debugger, easier to grasp for the end user. May be there are 
too much legacy code from the SystemWindow parent class of 
DebuggerWindow, will see.

Or the alternative is to have a simplified DebuggerWindow, may be a bit 
less comfortable for the end user. But really you have to confront to 
the end users, you never really know for sure as long as you have no 
confronted the end users to the GUI, because of our own biais. A 
simplified DebuggerWindow will be more easily reusable in other Cuis 
projects and in DrGeo I could then have the option to show the complete 
debugger for advanced users.

Regarding the buttons, Over, Through and to Cursor position. Likely not 
a step into

Thanks
