Sorry for earlier aghastness.


I find the system globals to be a distraction. Sometimes there are a dozen or more, depending on where I am in the session, and they begin the variable list. Certainly better if they were at the bottom, and this hack is possible, just as the hack from Thierry prevents their loading at all.


But when debugging, I want to see, usually, only my own variables. I hate scrolling down just to display my own portion of the list.

This has been a topic, bugaboo and bug report (I think) for a while, but no 
reason not to do it again.

The first time? How, how is that possible? I have never used "revXMLEndTree". 
But the debugger?

Well, that is as maybe. But then I've never had an urge to use the 
variable watcher.

In fact, for the first time ever, I have just looked at it.

What I don't understand is what the problem is if those $$$$-ery things 
are confined to the
variable watcher why they should be problem in the script editor qua 
script editor.
