My point being, GUI should be the biggest priority, let's stabilise it so we can make an awesome 4.0 splash. - Jordi G. H.

Um, on this point, is it a known thing that debugging doesn't work in the editor/GUI?

For me the interactive debugging through the GUI is the primary feature. At the moment, on my machine at least using the default branch, the debugging works so badly through the editor buttons that I would suggest any GUI release should actually remove the buttons to avoid looking bad. I presume this is just a matter of ongoing development work though, and this is known and not specific to my setup?

I did recently fix a bug in JIT that caused some breakpoints to be ignored (http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/52df2e7baabe). Was this causing you problems, or is there some other issue?
