1. Suggestions for v2.5

Hi,
How about these Euphoria trace features:
1."trace" a variable; ie whenever the variable name is referenced during
execution,
 the trace output shows the variable name, its value,  if its global, local
or private(scope) ,
and which line/procedure  its defined as (scope).
2. Show the size in byes/Mb's used by each variable in the dump ( the famous
"?1/0" output),
especially useful in big sequences
3. Allow variable display subscripting in the trace window. Yes I know I can
create
a dumb variable and display that, but "?s[20..30] " means I can check the
subscript vaules
without stopping the program.

Not trolling, but comments invited.

Thanks for the suggestions.
I'll add them to my own.
I've recently coded over 10,000 lines of Euphoria,
and I'm noticing things that could be improved.

Sheesh.  So all we had to do to get new stuff into Euphoria was to have you
code more in Euphoria? :)
