Seeing Source w/ Debugger [message #2398]

I'm having great difficulty setting breakpoints and figuring out
EXACTLY what line I'm on while stepping through my IDL 3.5 programs.
IDL won't let me set breakpoints until after I've run the program.
Even then, the breakpoint line numbers don't correspond with the
line numbers I see in vi. This is very frustrating.
Ideally, I'd like a full-screen debugger, but just displaying
the source for the current line would be fine for me (like in dbx
and gdb). I am considering writing a program to preprocess another
program for debugging. The preprocessed program would load in its
full source into an array, and at the beginning of every line that
isn't a continuation, have "print, source(i) & " where i is the line
number. Has anyone done this? Any suggestions? Thanks.
