[Octave-patch-tracker] [patch #8656] Variable Editor (expanded from Patch #8316)

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #41, patch #8656 (project octave):

My pleasure. Actually I was a bit afraid you'd be put off by all my comments
:-)

I'm very happy to have a variable editor available => makes debugging my
scripts and functions a LOT easier. So I'm happy to test (& comment) further
as well.

As to the MXE build instructions, that has changed a little nowadays (the
"octave" target should rather be "default-octave" and I've hit a few other
glitches). I usually build mxe-octave once and then use it for a month or so
building just new Octave versions with the prebuilt dependencies. Each new
mxe-octave "cycle" seems to bring its own issues (now ~familiar to me but
maybe harder to overcome for newbies).
Copying to the wiki could be easy but I have other priorities :-)

Would you agree to bring up the variable editor development in the maintainers
ML? Other devs could "interfere" then (it wouldn't be your baby anymore) but
development could be more rapid.
