I'm new to this wonderful world of Mac programming, and my very first task
is to update a DA used for printing over a TCP/IP network.  The only problem
is that the DA doesn't work!  How in the world do I debug one of these?
Here are the specific questions:

1) Is there any way to get symbolic debugging for a DA?  SADE doesn't seem
   to like anything but applications.  (I'm using MPW, SADE, and MacsBug.)

2) Is there any easy way to get debugging output from a DA, or would it
   take mystical operations like tweaking dialog boxes and such?

3) Are you willing to share any tips or tricks of DA debugging?

Thanks for the help!
