i use gdb (the gnu debugger). there are graphical front ends to
gdb (e.g., ddd, www.gnu.org/software/ddd). you might have better
luck with those if you're not already familiar with gdb. the
interface will probably be better for you. i never use the
graphical front ends because i'm already familiar with gdb, and,
well, my computers are puny and i don't need the graphical
stuff to slow them down even more.
make sure the source code is compiled with -g so that debugging
symbols are included. if it wasn't compiled with -g, you'll want
to recompile the whole thing.
