1.2.1 Debugger Prompt

By default the debugger's prompt string is "(Pydb) " with a trailing blank. Recursive invocations using the "debug" command strip off the trailing blanks, add a layer of parenthesis around the string, and add a trailing blank. For example, for the default prompt the first debug invocation will be "((Pydb)) ".

There's currently a bug in the code where specified trailing blanks are chopped. Furthermore the prompt may change in the future to add a history number. It is generally not advisable to change the prompt.

If you do need to change the prompt see 1.2.3.
