I think Aubrey is absolutely correct with his opinion and the
ETH approach to debugging is nicely explained in Chapter 5 (Debugging)
of the BlackBox User Manual (Dev/Docu/User-Man).

There is also some explanation of the different trap numbers.

I wonder sometimes if it would be an idea to have a trap viewer
and proceed normally ...
