160917 - Land venkman 0.9.31

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Other Applications Graveyard :: Venkman JS Debugger, defect)

Description

[Robert Ginda]

Adds the concept of the "evaluation object", which is the js object the "eval"
command will use as the |this| object.  The user can select objects from the
Open Windows, Local Vairables, and/or Watch views to be used as the evaluation
object.  This makes it possible to eval script against an arbiitrary context
without actually being stoped at a breakpoint.

This patch also makes "eval" the default command.  And text typed in the
interactive session that does not start with a / character is evaluated as
javascript.  Text that does start with / is interpreted as a command.  I've
added a big bold message to the Interactive Session to warn users about this change.

The patch also fixes localization bug 160623, changes file->quit to file->exit
on windows systems, fixes a floating-point related rounding error in the source
view, and assigns unique line numbers to script executed with the eval command.
