RE: [PyCrust] how do you load and run the Data samples?

[Kevin A. <al...@se...>]

Okay, the obvious next question is what is the process of copying and
pasting or doing a shell.savefile() or whatever to take all or only the
selected part of the shell window contents and making it into one of these
runs? Minus the output of course?

On a related note, should we give the shell (PyCrust) a hierarchical menu in
the Debug menu of PythonCard so it has the ability to respond to some menu
commands? If so, we'll need to coordinate menu ids, functions to bind, etc.
