I'm astounded that none of the public schemes out there have a visual debugger. (I know, some people say scheme doesn't need a debugger, but I don't believe it; its a dynamic language, debugging should be *easy*).
My plan is to hook up some scheme system to the powerful Eclipse debugging framework. This should be doable in a week or two, if the language has the right hooks. See
http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-Debugger/how-to.html This will be combined with the SchemeWay plugin.I am curious if people have thought about adding debugging capabilities to Chicken, along the lines of what is in Gambit. It seems like most of the hooks are there. Am i missing something?
Is anybody else interested in helping out? Is this the right email list to discuss this topic?
William
