The SuperTrace debugger for the NasCom II (a Z80 based machine) ~82
supported general expression break points. It would compile the break
expressions. It used single stepping.


Microsoft C (for Messy-Dos) in ~87 came with a debugger called
CodeView, quite good for the time. It supported data breakpoints, on
specific locations. It used single stepping.
