Greetings,
First off, thank you for this great program! When I use this with Open Watcom 1.7 for Windows it compiles fine but using the debugger (wdw.exe) gives me this error in a pop-up window: Invalid option "nx"

The debugger window at the bottom finishes with status 1.

Any help much appreciated.

The Watcom debugger is *not* (yet) supported by C::B. C::B supports GDB and CDB (GNU and MS debugger).
The error raises because C::B passes GDB arguments to the Watcom debugger.
With regards,l Morten.

Teoretically you can start your debugger with this command file:
@echo Start debugger with parameter %9
F:\Programs\IBMDebug\bin\idebug.exe %9

I does create command file "mydebug.cmd" and call this file vs gdb.exe.
This method using only for start external debugger, no other meanings for use this method!
Generally I start debugger from Tools menu.
WinXP SP2.

Good luck!
