[Bashdb-announce] Release 4.2-0.7 out

[Rocky B. <ro...@gn...>]

A new release is out. The first three items from the NEWS file I think
are cool.

I don' t have a bashdb wiki (and should probably create one), but I
did create some wiki entries for the
related debugger zshdb which give some feel of the first two features. See

- syntax coloring if the Python pygments package installed (and
  --highlight option used)
- easy way to evaluate the current source line or expression inside
  the source line (debugger commands "eval" and "eval?")
- ability to go into a nested shell but keeping existing variables and
  functions set. (debugger command "shell") With this, one needs...
- ability to save variables to an outer shell ("set_vars" function
  inside the interactive shell)
- ability to save values from inside a subshell to the outer shell
  (debugger command "export")
- add --init-file (akin to same option in bash) to have bash code
  sourced
