Stuart, have you done it yourself?  I have tried with a "device" and
got nowhere. sdb always says that it cannot find the device, when I know
that mydev.dbg file is in the current dir and the device is loaded (after
the OpenDevice). Has anybody been able to do this REALLY?

Out of luck.  SDB does not handle workbench programs.
