I have in my junkbox somewhere, a pair of DACs tied to a 40 pin clip (for Z-80 systems) that output X and Y information to an Oscilliscope. This plots where your code is running, in realtime. It came in handy for debugging, back when we couldn't afford ICEs. No help for microcontrollers though, since you can't see where the code is executing externally. -- Where's dave? http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/find.cgi?kc6ete-9 -- http://www.piclist.com hint: To leave the PICList mailto:piclist-unsubscribe-request@mitvma.mit.edu
