This feature makes detecting any syntax errors in your script a faster process and reducing the development time.
Step means that you go line by line. This
can be slow because you have to select
Step again to go to the next line but it is a
good debugging tool. Trace will run it all
at once and it will stop at an error.
The most useful function in HyperTMON is
the variable watching function. This
function displays the value that is within
any variable at anytime. This was very
useful when I was developing the "AMUG
BBS File Reader". The first step in the
variable watcher is to enter the variables
you would like to watch. Then as your
script runs it displays the current value
within that variable. Now if your script is
not running correctly without any syntax
errors this is more than likely cause by

the incorrect value being passed
throughout your script. So the variable
watcher helps solves these problems fast.
This function was a great time saver.
There is a lot in HyperTMON and it is all
very useful. HyperTMON is for both
beginners and advanced HyperTalk
programmers. It can be especial useful
and a time saver for beginners.
HyperTMON retails for $99.95 and though
MacWarehouse it lists for $59.00.
