Re: [oopic] oSerialL and oLCDSE

My favorite method, which I use even on IDE's that have full ICE ability
is "printf". On most processors I use a plain ol' string output over a
serial port. I will admit that having full breakpoint capability is a
boon when working with complex state machines - But sometime just
picking a couple of variables to print out at certain points will
provide all you need to ponder.
