Bob,
I think that Chipp had an altPlugin that would look everywhere on a stack
and find those puts...

Cool! What about 'put something after message'?
I sometimes make a long comment like '-- -
!' after such lines. Sometimes, I make a command to log values
that can be changed to output to the message box, stdout, the console, a file
or a field and then
I've gotten in the habit of doing this:
--TEST:
put blah blah blah
Then I can just do a search for --TEST and find the put and delete
it. Not very high-tech, but it works for me.

Nice, but no, a while back I stopped putting put statements in and replaced
them with
put xyzzy cr after msg
that way I just
Good idea, Mark. But... Then you have to put 'put empty' at the top of the
section tested. Easy to search for, though. Or clear the message box by hand.
It would be nice to have a clear button on the message box. And a scroll bar.
That way to you can accumulate several runs. You can

That may have been I who mentioned log. Don't forget the newline or tab in the
log handler. The method also allows adding timestamps or delta seconds.
Though I said log, I actually tend to use the word log for more permanent
logging. The three letters can't be beat for shortness, though.
Jacque,
I use something like
constant kDebug = true
on log pText
if kDebug is true then
put pText
end if
end log
The good thing is that if I want to change from debug to release, I just
change the kDebug constant value and the puts are gone.
Cheers

Is there any advantage of using a debug constant over commenting out the body
of the log?
And, to add to the confusion of output possibilities, if I want to minimize the
time impact or have other constraints, I log to a variable and then do
something with the variable.

no advantage at all... actually, the commented version will run faster
because it does not execute the if statement to check for constant
