I forgot CLIST once I learned REXX

And Charles you can debug REXX easily

Does CLIST have the kind of debugging facility that Rexx has? Can you assign
some initial values and then step through the code seeing what is happening?
I am going to guess not, but thought it worth asking.

I know nada CLIST. When I left the OS/360 family of operating systems
somewhere around 1975 TSO was mostly a slow curiosity and when I came back
around 1990 Rexx was powerful, widely available and I knew it from CMS.
Whenever I opened a member and it was in CLIST I quickly closed it again.
