I think I'm going to stick with DStep.
I do understand where the name is coming from, but (as has been
pointed out by others already) it offers no clue as to what it is
doing. Looking at the name it's anybody's guess what it is. It's
easier to remember a tool, if it has a reference to what it's all
about, e.g. Cygwin, htod.

[2] in case it will go beyond C/Obj-C, we need no reference to
C
It will hopefully support C++ as well.
