	While trying to debug a large bit of code (6 files about 30,000 lines
of code, one of the files produced by a special processor) I ran into the
problem of "where the heck am i".  My brother is a Beta tester for MWC and
had beta test version 2.9 (or the version with 2.9 beta MWC).  I took my code
over to his place, recompiled it and started looking through it with CSD.
Ran into immediate problems.  I don't know about the shiped version but #line
preprocessor statements got this version lost.  I edited the file produced
by my special processor to delete the #line statements and retried.  I had the
answer to my addressing problems figured out, fixed, tested and gone 10 minutes
latter.  My opinion of CSD is:

THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! 

Product of the year for the ST.  One other little problem is I can't seem to
get it to work with Beckmeyers Multi tasking Shell but I think it is something
I have set up wrong.  I am looking forward to the new manuals coming out but
I might suggest to Mark Williams (or David Beckmeyer) that they include a
section on setting up MWC and the MT-Shell to run together.
