See Steve Jasik's Debugger - adds appearing in MacTutor monthly, and
other hacker rags.  Works with his MacNosy, which I find essential for
real debugging (with no assembly out switch on LSC).  I haven't played
with it yet, but Jasik is such a fanatic, and MacNosy has improved
so much in the last year, I've got to believe it's worth whatever
he's asking for it.  And I do believe he's now reading the LSC
Project files for symbolic names.

Good luck.
