That's really great! If you don't mind, I would like to finish the
evaluation sheet I've added. Now it evaluates from the beginning to the
cursor and it should be the whole line. Maybe add evalute selected text
also when pressing Enter.

Well, I'm looking at a deadlocked situation now, an error dialog asks if I
want to debug and behind that a confirmation if I allow js to open a new
window, I pressed 'Debug' and can't do anything anymore. Confirmation
dialog keeps the focus, but Yes/No buttons don't work.
I think trouble with timer/onload events, while in session...
