The registry file to enable it is attached to this message. It will enable
the CPU window in both Delphi 2 and 3. Note that you have to close and
reopen Delphi after installing the reg file if Delphi was running. You will
have a new "CPU" option in the "Windows" menu.

In Delphi 2, the CPU window is quite simple; it only displays a disassembly
of the actual source position and allows you to do single CPU-instruction
steps. You can use the inspect window to look at the content of registers
(EAX,ECX,EDX,...).

The Delphi 3 CPU window is quite powerful, providing a similar CPU window
like Turbo Debugger does, with all registers and data windows.

The only thing I don't understand is why Borland made such a secret out of
it...
