 Debugger support overview
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Blinker can optionally create CodeView format .EXE files with full debugging
 information written at the end of the file. Versions 0 through 5 of the
 CodeView format are supported, and the specific version to write can be
 specified at link time along with the parts of the program to be debugged.
 Non-overlaid .EXE files should also be fully compatible with any of the
 other debuggers which read CodeView format .EXE files, such as Periscope and
 NuMega SoftICE/W.

 Blinker supports a number of source-level debuggers for DOS and Windows,
 either directly through CodeView information, or indirectly through a map
 file, or conversion utilities supplied with those debuggers.

 Some debuggers require exclusive access to the executable file during
 debugging, which may cause problems with overlaid programs, the usual
 symptom of which is a Blinker error 1203. To alleviate this problem, use the
 Blinker READONLY script command to create the executable with a read only
 attribute, or use the DOS ATTRIB command to set the read only attribute
 following the link.
