But there exist decent/usable debuggers for DOS, Windows and Linux, which you could use to debug it or programs compiled with it. The latter might be a little hardcore since there's no symbol/debug info in the executables produced by the compiler's linker. But map files are generated by the linker and the compiler outputs assembly code with annotations and so matching disassembly in, say, gdb with the assembly code and ultimately with the source code is quite feasible. I guess, yet another debugger could only have value if it's either somehow better than the existing ones (e.g. richer or better suites this compiler) or is also very small, like the compiler itself. Does "<BEG>" mean that you're begging for yet another one? If so, why? Alex
