This is a port of the GNU debugger with Modula-3 support for
FreeBSD. Using it you can
o step through your Modula-3 programs in source format
o set/clear/enable/disable breakpoints in Modula-3 programs
o inspect the values of variables and evaluate Modula-3 expressions
o view and inspect stack frames
o switch between threads, if you're careful to switch back again
This debugger is much more useful if your Modula-3 libraries contain
debugging symbols. To accomplish that, do a "make configure" of the
modula-3-lib port. Then edit its "work/m3/m3build/templates/FreeBSD2"
file. Search for "-g" and follow the instructions there. Then finish
building and installing the modula-3-lib port with "make install".
