Thanks. This has been a new addition to the tree by Dana, so I 
was not aware that we have properties now.

The hyperlinking is working for a very limited set of possible 
links right now. It is a great place to start if you'd like to 
contribute some code.

The debugger is under heavy reconstruction right now. I've 
decided to roll my own remote debugging protocol. I'll check 
something in as soon as I get stop/suspend buttons running.

Not next week, unless my progress really speeds up. I'd say there 
will be one within a month. I'd really like to get a real 
debugger in the next release (breakpoints/suspend/resume/variables).

Yes, I was there at Beckman & NCSA between 90 & 94.
