This repeats my earlier question, for which I got no replies yet, but I would still be interested in a response (it is relevant for use of Lazarus in our introductory programming course):

(3) The debug window to evaluate/modify expressions/variables seems to have some limitations. I would like to have some confirmation that this is "on purpose" and not a bug for 0.9.24:

(3a) The expression syntax is rather restrictive, e.g. 1+2 evaluates fine, but 1 + 2 (i.e. with spaces) does not. Some operators (notably div and mod) are not known. Can and will this be extended?

(3b) The modify facility does not it planned
to be make this work?

Best regards,

Tom
