[21] Symbolic debugging of FWEB files?

FWEB inserts sync lines `#line 137 foo.web' into the code, so any compiler/debugger worth its money should respect them. (Including those running under MS-DOS.)

Extra FWEB comments in the tangled output can be suppressed by a simple command line switch. See [M-14.2] for a list of command line options.

NB: well thought out code needs less time debugging - comments like "since I've started using anyWEB, my debugger has just been collecting dust ..." were reported from many people on the list.
