That's what I did with codewarrior! I've hardly used gdb, but it does work and isn't unusable, in fact it's very powerful. But if it doesn't fit your needs, find an alternative. Pepper your source with printf's I think that's the most accepted method here.>And you friend programmers what you think about this BIG problem that is>seriously delaying our dreams? To be honest I don't really think anything is. The whole philosophy behind programming is to push back the barriers and overcome problems with the tools you have, and that goes for any software development or language. Because Sony don't give you everything on a plate doesn't mean that it's not possible. I do hope however, when the Playstation dies and is replace with PSX2 that Sony would then release the full libs and docs to Yaroze owners. Any plans for this is a few years? Regards /Jim
