Gustavo, Your suggestion is good (I already told you that in the past, I think), but I believe it's unrelated to what we are trying to achieve here. What I want is an easy way to step into an eo_do function, just like we would have done with any other function.
What I really want to see is just "run until you exit the libeo.so binary and get back to a user function"...
