I agree that I'd really like to see what is going on, plus what has been happening in the background. This should be done without needing debugging variables because when I want to know why it is slow or unresponsive, I wasn't planning on that happening. And, often when that happens Evolution does not *want* to shut down. It can take literal *minutes* for Evolution to decide to quit when an IMAP connection has gone wonky. You can always force-kill it of course but I hate doing that. After all, if it was completely safe to force-close then why is Evolution waiting instead of quitting? Which would be the question that the interaction log would answer. Plus, it is just neat to have. _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
