Do not kill the debug window

[heartbone]

Why not the best of both worlds... a checkbox "Don't Close Me" on the top of the Window?

Normally, the debug Window operates exactly as it does now.

When you're having problems, check "Don't Close Me" before you kill the program.
It stays open, and you'll have your information.

Better yet, add the option in the Debugger drop down menu.

I prefer the debug/variables/memory windows stay open as they do when my app terminates normally.
When there is too much clutter, I run this as a tool(Windows only) to close all non-ide windows....

It's much easier to just add a "Kill Program" command to the toolbar...

Preferences-> ToolBar, then add Menu Item->Kill Program.

This should be on there by default, IMO.
