+The following Forth words can be used for debugging:
+
+ debug <xt> - Mark word for debugging
+ debug-off - Unmark all words for debugging
+ resume - Return from subordinate Forth interpreter
+
+The source debugger also implements the following commands when it has been activated:
+
+ Up - Unmark current word for debugging, mark parent and continue
+ Down - Mark next word for debugging
+ Trace - Continue execution until end of word displaying
+ debug information
+ Rstack - Display contents of the Rstack
+ Forth - Launch subordinate Forth interpreter
