Re: octavede - a ide for octave

Good job, John,

adding some hooks into the interpreter such that after a command
returns to the top level or hits a break point that information queried
by the IDE can be pushed into some thread-safe object for later
retrieval by the IDE.

From my own experience, this would in fact be a very good thing. Basically have an idle() function that gets called when the interpreter is in a safe state and stuff has changed.
