I'm not confused any more.  Apparently the Turbo C++ v1.0 Professional
I have is the last of its kind under that name.

The Debugger I have signs on as version 2.0.  The manual says it's for
C, Pascal, and assembler, and supports C++, and the user interface is
consistent with that.  I've never actually used it, though.  The
package as I got it (used) included manuals for both Debugger (1.0)
and Debugger 2.0; I thought that was a mistake.
