Little Bugg'r: Source Level Debugging Utility
Release notes:
02-27-89 First release of "Little Bugg'r" v1.00.
Uploaded the archive to the CIS Nantucket Forum and several
Des Moines area bulletin boards. This release was premature.
By compiling Buggr without line numbers, a spurious value was
returned (in some cirmumstances) by TRACE() causing the TRON()
function to abend.
03-05-89 "Little Bugg'r" v1.01
Compiled with line number this time. Made some minor changes
to the code, added more error messages, and also added a
DELAY() function. DELAY() is used to slow the "GO (animation)"
option in the Clipper Debugger. Did additional work on the
documentation to clarify some points and correct some errors
regarding Clipper's debug menus.
03-16-89 "Little Bugg'r" v1.1.0
Improved coding yields speed increase of 2-3X previous
version. No longer need to enter "PUBLIC trace_1, trace_2".
Fixed bug that caused inconsistant behavior in complex
situations with multiple source files. Improved DELAY() by
allowing user to "speed up" the delay by holding the
SPACEBAR.
Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
