I don't think you can (unless, as you said, you want to write an APPL
shell for it).  For debugging non-APPL stuff I find Steve Jasik's
Debugger absolutely essential.  If you can look past the awkward
interface, the more than occasional bugs in it, and Steve's "style",
it is a godsend!

The Debugger does do full source level debugging given either an MPW
.SYM file or Think C project.  The Pascal support is better than the C
support (i.e. all Debugger internal syntax is in Pascal. Steve is VERY
much a Pascal programmer) but it handles C (and C++) more than
adequately.  Look in any MacTutor for an ad.

I have no affiliation with Steve Jasik except as an occasional tester and
haranguer about problems and lack of better C support.
