Having some problems with the variable window + active line in MacVim.

The breakpoint is hit, because the program (in this case a http request to rails) is blocking until I hit c, but the variable window is never populated with local variables, the line is never marked, etc.

Some other people were having this problem in issue https://github.com/astashov/vim-ruby-debugger/issues/28

I'm willing to paste my ruby_debugger_log file, but it's pretty full, and I don't want to spam the initial report.

Thanks for looking into this, the plugin is really slick, and I want to stay 100% vim :-)

Took me a bit, but the final solution was to use homebrew to install MacVim, so that I could get the 'mvim' command, and finally setting this in my .vimrc (per the docs):

let g:ruby_debugger_progname = 'mvim'
