Alert user when running another instance of DebugViewPP #360

Hi,

This happened to me many times that I forgot I already opened DebugViewPP, and I'm staring at the screen wondering why there is no output in DebugViewPP..

I don't know what the purpose of a paused DebugViewPP, but maybe popup a MsgBox or something? The status bar's text "Paused" is not easy to noticed.

I see how this can get confusing, but I'm not sure what you're proposing. Popup a message when? When messages come in during 'paused' ? or when starting a second debugview instance when there is already one running ?

when starting a second debugview instance when there is already one running

This was what I meant. Thanks.

Agreed, I will add this warning message at startup. In fact I think it used to be there, and I'm not sure when it was removed :)

solved, a message pops up now if you start debugview++ twice
