I'm looking for any comments regarding hardware debuggers for the IBMPC
family of computers (AT,XT,clones,etc.). So far I've heard some things
about the ATRON debugger and some on the PERISCOPE. I am interested in
finding out more information on these or any others that should be
conisidered for purchase. If anyone has any information regarding this,
please post or send mail.

Some of the user interface is a bit clunky...you have to type a '.' (period) at the start of each symbol name. I've never used their source option. But it helped me debug some TSR programs that I probably never would have been able to debug any other way. I think they only claim it to work with certain systems, for instance real IBM computers, and Compaq's. It *doesn't* work in the Everex AT clone, which my company has very many of, so we have to use it in our one true IBM PC/AT. -- - john romkey ...harvard!spdcc!kaos!romkey romkey@kaos.uucp romkey@xx.lcs.mit.edu
