When the debugger is stopped at a breakpoint, nothing runs on the thread 
that is stopped.  Because Wing's debugger only supports a single thread, 
all other threads can run, but I suspect that the display won't update 
until the main thread runs.

May I ask what you want to do here?  I ask because a debugger typically 
stops all parts of a program when a breakpoint is hit.  Are you looking 
for an interactive console where you can enter commands and have the 
graph be updated in response to your commands?
