Rory, that's right on the top of my pet peeve list. It's SO miniscule as to prevent me from actually asking for a change, but it's annoying every . single . time . I run into it.

If I could change one thing about the green-screen debugger, it would be
the ability to simply enter a string on the command line and press F16 to
find it - right now, you have to enter 'FIND string', press Enter to find
the first occurrence and only then can you press F16 to find subsequent
occurrences. Sucky non-SEU-like behavior, if you ask me.

I assume Joe P was talking about being able to view %EOF, %ERROR, %FOUND
(and ideally, edit them, obviously). Perhaps also being able to position
the cursor on either of the '%date' bits of the following line and get a
value returned:

if %date(myField)> %date();

As you have found out, debug does have its own version of a %SUBSTR
built-in-function, but not any others (except the *massively* useful
%LOCALVARS).
