Tools palette hiding is configurable in the latest version. It's in
the "real" purchasable one and I'll have it on revOnline as soon as it
lets me log in again (grrr). For now, just move the tools palette more
than three pixels from the left edge of the screen and it'll stay put.

...and you can get to the preference settings once the debugger is on
the screen with the help icon (upper left hand corner). Yeah, I know.
Bringing it up from the plugins menu attempts to start the debugger
with no debug context, which just confuses everyone. You *can* bring
up the main page from the Application Browser and then click the help
icon from there, but that's kind of an ugly way to go about it as
well.
