OK, I've got Sozobon C set up (with gulam, of course). I've written a couple little programs to make sure it works. Now, I run into some run time errors. So my question is: what do you use to debug your programs? Is there something similar to dbx available on the ST? Of course, I'm most interested in hearing of PD/shareware debuggers, but what do you experts out there recommend?

I use the brute-force method:
#define DEBUG(x) x /* x */
DEBUG(fprintf(stderr,"<<File %s Line %d>>\n",__FILE__,__LINE__));
et cetera. You also could use the Sozobon debugger, sdb, available from
the Panarthea file server or by FTP from atari.archive.umich.edu. I have
not made use of it.
