Hi,

I added the text and the source from the magazine article.
(The source OCR is really bad, Sorry)

It describes how the author implemented the full debugging suite including
single stepping.

That PC code would not be useful for the CoCo and was not included in the
article.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Is there not a utility to display the contents of a library, like listing
the routines and entry points.

The dig.l listing would probable tell me if it was worth disassembling.
