Under linux, fullscreen debugging can be dangerous (it's too easy for

screen, so just using windowed mode for testing's not sufficient..

Linux is probably the best OS to do it from because you can usually
still switch to a text console using ctrl-alt-F(1-6) [usually] and
killing the application ie "killall python" if nothing else is running
under python or ps -A and kill [process number of your app]
