+Capital A Acid is a rudimentary acme interface to the debugger acid.
+It uses a win to provide an interactive window for acid. In that window,
+a couple of extra acme-specific features are enabled:
+
+w(command)
+ runs the command and places its output in a new window.
+ e.g. w(lstk()) places the stack trace in a distinct window.
+
+Also, in any such window, text executed with button 2 is
+presented as input to acid in the main Acid window. Thus, for
+example, one may evaluate variables presented in a stack trace
+by `executing' it with button 2.
