That's very good to hear.  :)  As for bad programming, there are two
kinds... logical errors, which are easily debugged, and exotic errors,
such as memory leakage and stack overflows, which are far, far
harder.

Speaking of those, who would I talk to about gdb's apparent inability
to interface with the __dpmi_set_debug_watchpoint() call?  Charles,
or you, or the GNU folks?  Also, do the watchpoints thus set function
only in a debugging environment, or should they also break the
program when you are running it normally?  Neither is working for
me...

TIA
