News:
9/3/2000: New Version. Whohoo. Quite alot of cool stuff in this release like real time memory editing using a hex/ascii editor like interface :). It would have been released earlier but I got a crappy bug in the interface which I was determined to fix. Full list of changes are :-

Real time memory editing facility. HEX/ASCII editor format.

Added a program reset using the ALT + R command.

Finally added cached through memory addresses to the memory routines.

User cant set a non word boundry PC,PR or invalid SR reg value now.

Added a breakpoint editor to disable and set new breakpoints without directly setting them in the disasm window.

Added easy to read bit by bit display of the SR reg (with bit names above).

Added a load progress bar on the pc side to indicate a program is indeed loading.

Added a load file to memory command. NOTE F5 and F6 commands reversed.

Added an undo command for the last inline asm command. Useful if uve have assembled the wrong instruction.

Rnt u lucky boyz and girls. I finally found how to delete filez so no more files left about cause of gas :)

Finally sorted out the exact cause of a interface bug which has plagued me since I wrote satonem in djgpp. Finally realised there must be a bug in the gets() function and have written my own version to compensate.

Fixed a few things which might have caused problems in last release on some systems (what systems? No one is using the program :))

20/2/2000: New version released. Version 0.5a. Added coff support and inline assembler if u have the saturn gcc assembler.
9/2/2000 : If u have downloaded version 0.4a (some how is doubtful if a single person has :( ) download 0.41a below as there was a bug which cause some if not most programs to stop working and crash the debugger and the saturn :(.

Ok so here is the program. Currently it requires a EMS PAR 4in1+ to work as I have yet to find someone with a Datel PAR. If u have one contact me so I can give u a test version.
Sega Saturn Debugger Ver 0.6a

Remember to read the readme file for the disclamier etc

Enjoy :)
