- Debugger comment:
- 'I provide a simple breakpoint facility for GNU Smalltalk. In the future,
- I may be expanded to perform inspection, and other useful functions.
- One idea would be to have an instance of a debugger created for each method
- that has breakpoints, or somehow have the debugger run from a separate
- processes that has a higher priority.'!

- recordOldByte: byte atIndex: anIndex forMethod: aMethod
- "I preserve the original byte code from a compiled method, for restoration
- after the breakpoint is removed. My implementation does not notice if
- the compiled method is shared; so a breakpoint in a compiled method will
- cause a break in whichever classes share this method. This does not occur
- at all in practice, so it's probably not an issue."
