Has anyone heard of multiple windows? Do we really need to control

This is a good point and possibly a limitation in the debugger. It
would be nice to have the option to have multiple windows (and a handy
way to toggle back and forth from them?). I have always wondered why
everyone gives you the option of multiple editing windows but only ONE
debugging window (and I have used many debuggers and emulators).
This is the first version of PB to include everything in a single
window. I recall Steve extolling the virtues of simplifying the UI by
eliminating a profusion of windows, but I think PB is an example of
taking this a bit too far. When debugging a Cocoa app, it can be pretty
difficult to have the app window and PB's window visible at the same
time. Earlier PB's had a small debugger window that included debugger
controls and console. This window could be placed on the desktop so it
wasn't obscured by the app's window which was nice.
