Display:

[mark posted the log from the terminal window]

Bugs found; none were display related!

bug#1 break command syntax (existing bug)
Should be <<break #23>> and not <<break @23>>

bug#2 In list command, where am i?
Vis:
(fhpd) list
10  asdf
11 bdf
12 ggh
13 uuh
(fhpd)
which line; (pick this one up this week with the disassembler)

bug#3 mixed output [mcvet]
    (fhpd) go
    Breakpoint at 10 hit
where is the prompt to indicate that the user has control again and 
there isn't any more output

bug#4 4747
Panic some times when stepping.

bug#5 Tie the displayed PID to the session's task/proc ID [timoore]

----

Ideas: for display

-- extend to include dynamic display; for instance:
display $pc -format iinstruction

bug#6 deleted breakpoints not deleted
Apparently they only get disabled.

bug#7 no notification when task exits

---

Idea's for location syntax:

-> can it be extended to include column number vis #LINE#COL

-> way to specify an address

----

Tim:

Mike:

-> chasing breakpoint bugs in stepper

Nurdin:
