ANN: Extended Python debugger 0.12

R

R. Bernstein

This third release of an improved debugger also probably about as
great as the last release.

Download from
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=61395&package_id=175827

On-line documentation is at
http://bashdb.sourceforge.net/pydb/pydb/lib/index.html

Along with this release is a version of ddd (3.3.12-test3) that
interfaces with this debugger. Get that at:
