Ever had a look at xwpe-1.4.2.tar.gz ?
This is the file README for the xwpe distribution,
version 1.4.0.
xwpe is a X-window programming environment designed to use
on UNIX-systems. It is similar to 'Borland C++ or Turbo Pas-
cal' environment. The difference between the programming
environments from Borland an xwpe is that many compilers and
linkers may be started. From a menu three different
debuggers can be chosen. And of course not only key strokes
can select these options you can also use a mouse.
Errors that occur while compiling and linking a programme
can be examined in the sources: The cursor will jump to the
corresponding line in the source-file. Programmes using more
than one source-file can be managed with the so called
project-option (see also project-file). The programme can
be started from within the Programming-Environment and
errors may be found using a debugger. The
debugging-environment allows the user to set and unset
breakpoints directly in the source code. The contents of
variables may be displayed in a special window, the
Watch-Window. This window is updated while reaching a
breakpoint. The Stack-Window displays the programme stack.
