    Default ClearLastDebug

    i have requested this before, but it never got added
    can you add a function to clear the last debug line, it would be useful for doing countdowns.
    instead of the debug being filled with
    10:12
    10:11
    10:10
    10:09
    10:08
    10:07
    10:06
    10:05
    10:04
    etc.
    it can just be
    10:04
    if i remember correctly it was going to be added, but never did

    Simba doesn't really have any of the cool/useful debugging features that SCAR has, sadly. :/ Not really sure why, but whatever.

    Would be useful, imo.

    I agree with this... Why would you be de-repped for something that simple? I'll +rep you to compensate.

    Why not use Status() for this?
    Debug messages are ... debug messages. If you really need it file a bug report, but I think this is typically the kind of functions that we didn't want to add in Simba because they are silly.
    If anything, it will probably come with tabbed debugging.

    We use debug messages for multiple things, including progress report and timers. Because this is one of the few ways to interact with the 'user' about how the script is doing, without the use of on screen information(SMART). Maybe we need to give it another name :P.

    The tabbed debugging I've been working on gives you complete control over the contents.

    Here is how you would do this in mine.
    Code:
    procedure ClearLastDebug;
    begin
      with GetTab(tbDebug) do
        Delete(Count - 1);
    end;
    GetTab gives you a TStringList that you can modify and it will show in that tab. =)

    @OP: Try making it in Simba yourself Should be a nice task to do, and the possibility of being added to Simba increases a lot if you actually have the code.

    If you still want it, please file a bug at http://bugs.villavu.com and someone will run into it when doing their ``what bug shall I solve now'' trips.
