Hello,
I am an active user of WinPDB, and I'd like to suggest some improvements
in "Attach" action interface. I am regularly using it to attach to the
embedded scripts (I am not running a program under the winpdb2, but using
rpdb2.start_embedded_debugger method), and there are some inconveniences
in such use:
1. "Attach to script" action doesn't have a dedicated hotkey and/or
toolbar icon. Though partially this can be worked around using Alt-F A, so
that's not a huge problem.
2. When I just executed the "Attach" command, winpdb looks over the
scripts running on the localhost, and shows the list, and puts focus on
the "Host" editbox. It would be really great to keep focus on the "Host"
editbox, but also preselect the first one in the list, if the list is not
empty. So if there is a script being debugged, and the script is the only
one, we would just press "Enter" to proceed, without the need to select it
manually.
3. If it is the first time we are connecting to the embedded debugger, the
well-known "You attached to an embedded debugger..." dialog is shown.
Could there possibly be a setting "Don't EVER show this to me" on this
dialog? I've seen it too many times during the last year, and I suspect I
am not the only one.
Thanks in advance.
