Are you running this in Linux? Or is there a way to setup OpenCPN in windows such that it shows this screen? I might be able to start learning by stepping through the code, ...kind of viewing over the shoulder

You need a dev environment to do this. It's not that hard actually.
I just went through the instructions at Compiling - Windows | Official OpenCPN Homepage and made sure that they're up to date. Follow them and skip the optional steps, should be about 1 hr work to have everything set up.

Thomas is running ddd on linux, but on Windows you get the same results if you run the debug build in Visual Studio - instructions for building at Compiling - Windows | Official OpenCPN Homepage

And, rgleason, since you named yourself unfamiliar with these tools in other threads, there is a pretty decent beginners intro to using VS2010 at youtube.com /watch?v=z5gBIizwsY0

Apologies if you find that too basic ;-) ...
