	I'm looking for an emacs workalike for dbxtool. For those who
	don't know, dbxtool is a window based front-end to the unix
	source-level debugger dbx. It runs on Suns.

	Dbxtool works by using dbx to step through the source files
	of a program being debugged, and allowing the reading and
	setting of program variables, etc. Dbxtool improves the
	interface, by making the interface screen oriented, marking
	the current line and break points with different symbols.

	Unfortunately, dbxtool has a lousy user interface, and isn't
	programmable. Is there an emacs mode that will do the same
	things?

				Thanks in Advance,

					-Tom
