Yes, that was the best debugger ever. GDB is trash.
There are bugs which are easier to catch using tracing, but also there are
some much easier to do with a visual debugger. It is difficult to say in
which relation they are.
I suspect that Ada eliminates more bugs of the second kind than of the
first kind.
On top of that comes the misery of GDB. I remember, in ObjectAda times,
which had more or less decent debugger, I used it time to time. But I never
managed to track any bug with GDB (under AdaGIDE and GPS).
