Yeah, I remember using this to try and debug MS JScript issues. What a headache, it was extremely flaky and would crash if you looked at it wrong.

- hinkley 4y agoI think people forget that debuggers used to crash the IDE as a matter of course (and they didn’t auto save as a matter of course). VisualAge for Java, the precursor for Eclipse, was the first IDE where the debugger was stable. However the editor would just up and crash instead, which is worse. Symantec had the first generally stable IDE in VisualCAFE. I learned to obsessively type CTRL-S on word processors in college. But that came to adulthood with me because of shit IDEs. I’ve used Jetbrains for more than 15 years. I know it saves when it loses focus. And I still hit save about ten times a day.
