636731 - Add GCLI commands for Workspaces

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 683513

(DevTools :: Console, defect)

Description

[Kevin Dangoor]

We should be able to control Workspaces via Cockpit. Initial set of commands I can think of (feel free to add/remove/adjust as makes sense):

* open workspace
* load file into workspace
* select range of lines
* object view for that range of lines ("inspect?" overloaded word?)
* evaluate that range of lines
* close the workspace (what if there are multiple?)

Note also that I think in addition to a selected DOM node notion, I think we also want a selected object. it would be good to evaluate code in the workspace and then be able to do another operation on that same object.

The command line history is going to contain a list of typed return values.

I wonder if we might have a similar thing here which is a typed list of selected objects?

Moving GCLI bugs to Developer Tools: Console. Filter on 'baked beans are off'.
