[Glass] tools/objectLog web tool and stack traces?

[James Foster]

I use Jade (on Windows) to look at the object log. There is a menu option on the Transcript for ‘Browse Object Log (<Ctrl>+<L>)’. This opens a debugger on the stack so you can inspect the stack frames. You can’t however, edit and continue.
