Let's go through the screenshots:

1) (error_in_iess.png) :  no

2) (last_input_arrow.png) : no

3) (ess_traceback.png) : yes

4) (Debugging.png) : yes

Vitalie: would it be possible to upload a short .R file, which can be
used to reproduce the screenshots? That would make understanding the
add-on much easier.

By the way: just screenshot 4 is worth the extension.

Cheers,

Rainer
