> I have often seen students running into a problem with a script they wrote. By simply walking them through the script step by step they see the problem by themselves.
> So the proposed feature would have one or two modes:
> 1) Single Step - where on each click of the mouse (or some other queue) the Script Tile that is being executed is highlighted and the script pauses at that step until the next click/queue
> 2) Single Step through a Script - Where there is a "slow motion" execution of the script with scripting tiles being highlited as they execute
> 3) Single Step though "Go - The equivalent of Single Step through Script except all scripts that would run when you click "Go" from "All Scripts are walked through
