Error informing #33

Certainly pop-ups should be avoided, I think exceptions should be caught in the background job and simply posted to the error log.

FYI, if PDE is not installed, then there is no Error Log View.

Currently GFMV may be too silent, when network related error happens.

How about a boolean preference setting called, e.g. Errors Dialog, which, if ON, would pop-up the alert. What default ON/OFF?

paulvi commented 10 years ago

Sure there should be option for that.

Alternative or addition to dialogs maybe Console. Nodeclipse and MonjaDB both have Consoles.
