Make debugging easier

[ClasherKasten]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I wanted to debug the application using the python debugger through breakpoint(). But because mitype is made using curses, this isn't very easy or even unfeasible.

Describe the solution you'd like There should be a better way to debug the application, An idea for that would be to use remote-pdb Sample scripts to ease the use of the tool could look like the following:

• testing/debug-mitype

  #!/usr/bin/env bash
  export \
  PYTHONBREAKPOINT=remote_pdb.set_trace \
  REMOTE_PDB_HOST=127.0.0.1 \
  REMOTE_PDB_PORT=4444 \
  REMOTE_PDB_QUIET=1
  exec mitype "$@"

• testing/debug-attach

  #!/usr/bin/env bash
  exec rlwrap telnet 127.0.0.1 4444

Additional context This code (and the idea) is not mine, instead it is taken from babi

Hey @ClasherKasten 👋 Thanks for the issue.

To debug mitype, I use VS Code's python debugging funcionality and it works pretty well. There might be other benefits your solution has to offer, but I would recommend not attaching any debugging scripts to the project, unless it becomes absolutely necessary. And it looks like running it on windows is going to be tricky. Let me know if you need any help here.

Thanks for the response @Mithil467. I think I don't need any more help on this and just gonna close the issue and corresponding PR, I feel like this is the right choice for now.
