dotCooCoo 7f641b9c10 Help: a stalled interface writes a hang report, and Copy Troubleshooting Info copies it
When the interface thread stays in one part of a frame for 3 s, a
watching thread writes a hang report to the log and to
logs/hang-report-<process id>.txt. The report gives the part of the
frame (input hook, logic, interface, or the renderer after a frame in
which any window had input), a system clipboard call in progress, the
last 8 different command ids, the last 16 frame times, the platform,
window system, desktop and session type, Flatpak, graphics adapter, the
present mode and frame latency the app asks for, the running time and
the number of open documents. It holds no document contents, file paths
or command parameters. The interface thread marks its stages with a few
atomic stores a frame, and the watching thread reads those marks without
waiting on it.

The process keeps the report file locked until the interface answers
again, then removes it. A file nobody holds at a later launch was left
by a session that was closed while it did not answer: the launch writes
the report to the log, moves the file to logs/hang-report.1.txt and,
unless another start-up message is showing, says so in the status bar.
Help › Copy Troubleshooting Info puts the platform facts, the recent
commands and frame times and both sessions' reports on the clipboard for
a bug report. An in-line file dialog, an open menu of the macOS menu bar,
and the time after a frame that minimizes or hides the window or starts
moving or resizing it are not timed.

The menu label and the two status messages have rows in every catalog.
