Debugging

The best thing to do is to start up the tracer. This will dump to standard output precisely what is happening. This is however done at the level of reversed equate expressions (see section Reversed Equate Expressions) as there is no symbolic debugger. You can also use the write keyword to print information onto standard output. You can turn on the tracer by assigning 1 to the _eq_trace system variable, ie. 1 >> _eq_trace. The tracer can be turned off by assigning 0 in the same way. Control of this variable allows tracing to be turned on and off at selected points during equate processing so that the particular problem area can be focused on.
