I find the language so safe and reliable that I don't quite understand the need for external debuggers. Is it driven by a need to integrate with other languages or external libraries?<br><br>Why can't a debugger be optionally compiled into the code and supported by the runtime? I find I don't need much more than the ability to log procedure execution, procedure parameters and local variables. I imagine some sort of debugging mode with a simple command line and an interrupt mechanism would facilitate interactive debugging.<br><br>Am I the only one who thinks
