When you run commands from the debug prompt, they are evaluated in a separate program-flow context from the running program (although it does have the appropriate workspace). @Christian,

This is not possible. When you run commands from the debug prompt, they are evaluated in a separate program-flow context from the running program (although it does have the appropriate workspace).

At the command line, MException.last contains all of the information in lasterror.
