Mr. Guid 0.2.8 does not require local copies of scripts for remote  
debugging anymore. The scripts are transferred to the client  
automatically as needed. (Therefore no file arguments need to be passed  
to mr\_guid)

Note: Instability in the Windows version is still possible (and  
probably exists). I would appreciate any help on this issue.

Smaller changes:

- Eliminated global variables from gdebug.rb

Mitchell’s Ruby GUI Debugger (Mr. Guid) is a simple cross-platform Ruby  
GUI debugger written in Ruby using the Ruby/Gtk2 bindings for GTK+. It  
is only meant to be a debugger, not an editor or IDE.
