[Yt-dev] Found something cool today

Hey guys,

Just as a fun note.  winpdb.org has the coolest debugger I've ever
seen.  It's basically a wrapper around pdb, which is already pretty
nice, but with additional features of remote debugging as well as a
GUI for setting breakpoints and examining the stack.  You can start
the GUI -- even on your local machine -- and then on the local/remote
machine run your script through rpdb2.  Then, just attach and go.

Pretty useful for debugging -- it's how I found the bugs in the spin
parameter & particle vectors earlier today.

-Matt
