#define DEBUG... (using printf for debugging)

[Tim Snider]

I was reading the stuff about DEBUG and here's what we do:

#define DEB(n,a)  if ( ldebug > n ) prt a

The debugs can be turned on and off interactively by setting n to the desired
value.  You don't have to take old debug statements out just turn up the value
for n so they won't print.  The prt function is just a shell for the appropriate
printf or fprintf statements depending on where/how the code is being executed.
A typical DEBUG statment looks like:

DEB (0, (" glorp %x glob %x splat %x", glorp, glob, splat));

The only negative thing about this method is that braces must be used
around ifs etc.
