Re: Auto-discard notification

Hi Daniel,

That sounds like a fine suggestion. It is no impact to those using Java 
source code and should certainly only benefit anyone using any other 
source language.

Using Nice I'll see to it that the debugging behaves properly. I'll let 
you know when the changes have been made and you can try the nightly 
build and let me know if it does what you want.

Thanks
