Yes, that was my starting point for the KDevelop ruby debugger - thanks
FreeRIDE guys!

I'd love to add a python debugger to KDevelop, maybe based on the Eric one.
So I'm happy to help out with Eric, if I can contribute any interesting
ideas/code from the ruby KDevelop debugger. In return maybe KDevelop can
coopt some of Eric's python debugger stuff in a GPL 'lovefest'..
