Hah, Igor, thanx, it works! :-)

I do start the debugger in a Runable and it appears.
It shows my first script and another window appears with the console
when the first script is done.

But then it seems my application will not continue to work. I was able
to break when my first script was to be executed, but then my
application sits there and no further things seem to happen ... What the
program does is to execute a test frame using Junit. Maybe some
threading issues with JUnit or so. Ok, I think I have to investigate
things here, maybe I can find out via my Java Debugger where my
application sits around ...

Thanx!
   Merten
