I think Nem's point is that you had to learn debugging techniques on
Windows at some point and you probably read some documentation on how to
do it there.
But if you compile with symbolic information and run under gdb, it is
generally pretty easy. Not as easy as using single-step debugging in the
old Borland compilers (which I used to use all the time), but it's not
very different, either. :-)
