Hi Thomas, 

I know how to do it :)
I’m talking about students: *they* don’t know and is a pity. I want it to be default because then they can debug their programs without needing to learn the configuration interfase (which we all know is not very… easy to use). Also my argument is: default installation is already prepared for development (hence the toolbar at the bottom), so… why not to prepare it completely for development by making WAWalkbackErrorHandler default? 

 Esteban

ps: added “default” in subject because I obviously forget that this morning :)

The first blocking issue they have is that since default error handler is WAHtmlErrorHandler they are lost each time they made a simple mistake (WAHtmlErrorHandler eats rendering problems, for example… or just shows DNU without saying anything.
