That last one, "Extract Local Variable", I can't tell you how many times I
would have paid good money to have that when I was deep in debugging a
program running in production. Although, after watching the video, I'm
unclear that this could work while debugging a Power i program, since it
seems like it would have to change the program object, which would
(should?) be impossible. Unless, RPG programs actually use a local hidden
variable that the debugger can observe. Specifically, what I would want to
do is to highlight
%substr(getCustName(getCustId(salesHistoryId)): 1: 1)
then right-click it, then select something labeled "View Function Result".

Then again, I am such a relative noob at RDi, that I may not be fully
understanding what is possible.
