RamDebugger is a graphical debugger for the scripting lenguage Tcl-TK. It can operate
basically in two modes:
- GUI mode: The normal one, is the one that appears when opening normally
the program and has a Graphical User Interface.
- Text mode: In this mode, the GUI is not displayed and the debugger is
executed as a set of text commands, similar to GDB. To use RamDebugger in this mode,
load it inside Tkcon.
With RamDebugger, it is possible to make Local Debugging, where the debugger starts
the program to be debugged. and Remote debugging, where the program to debug is already
started and RamDebugger connects to it.
RamDebugger has additional capabilities like:
- Editing the code. It is possible to edit the code inside its own editor and resend
the new code without closing the debugged program.
- The TCL-TK source code is colorized and supports automatic indentation.
- When stopping the debugger is one source code line, it is possible to view all the
variables and expression values, as well as change them.
- It has additional options to measure execution times in the debugged program.
- Works in Linux and Windows
- Includes additional packages, like Tkcon and VisualRegexp, developed by third party
people, as a convenience for RamDebugger users.
- The same program is an IDE for compiling and debugging c and c++

Note: RamDebugger can also be an IDE for compiling and debugging c/c++ code. It
uses GDB as a backend. See section Compiling/Debugging c++ for details.
