One of the biggest advantages of Saber as a debugger is that you can modify
source and reload ONLY that source file (reloading a source file takes about
a second) and immediately start debugging again. Since the first step of
any debug session should be to lint the source, the fact that Saber does
this is a HUGH advantage.
I don't understand why you don't like a debugging tool
with a built in lint?
