If you're fed up of breaking into the debugger under MultiFinder
and finding yourself looking at the wrong application heap, here's
a handy trick:

Make sure the application you're interested in is frontmost, and hold
down the mouse button over the menu bar (it doesn't have to be over
a menu) while you reach with your other hand to press the
interrupt button. The application will be sitting in the call to
MenuSelect, and no other application will have a chance to run.
