   ...I am having trouble getting the interactive debugger to run.

Greetings:

  We have been using the Inmos ANSI C debugger extensively in both
interactive and post mortem modes.  It does support both interactive
and breakpoint debugging on all t8* processors (contrary to some
incorrect statements made in net postings).  On the processors without
breakpoints, the debugger only supports breakpoints on low priority
processes.

  Note that your processors need a fair amount of memory to run the
debugger.  Note also that, since the debugger is written to support a
multitude of target configurations, you need to correctly involk it
with command line switches corresponding to your network.  For
example, to run the debugger in post mortem mode on a network of B011s
from a PC with a B004 development card, we use the command "idebug
filename.btl /t 2 /sa /a".  Read the Inmos documentation carefully to
get the switches right for your configuration.  

  Perhaps you could be more specific about what sor of trouble you are
having?  It works well.  

   The Best,

       -Louis.
