There should also be a "Debugger (debug)" tab after you turn the 
mentioned option on.
In some screen resolutions not all tabs may fit on the screen though. In 
that case, you should use the two small triangles to the right of the 
tabs to scroll them.

Are you sure it should wait? Code::Blocks by default runs console apps 
through a wrapper that asks for a key press, but since you're running 
the program without it that won't happen unless the program explicitly 
asks for one itself.
