[Caml-list] questions about Emacs/camldebug

[Matej Kosik]

Dear all,

Are there people who use camldebug in Emacs?

What do you think about it?

Do you employ some custom tricks to make the invocation more seamless?

Now, when I want to run it, I need to do this:

  M-x camld<TAB>                        (* 7 keystrokes *)
  <BACKSPACE>...<BACKSPACE>program      (* 19 keystrokes *)
  C-x C-o                               (* switching to the buffer above that holds the source code ... 2-keystrokes
  C-x C-a C-b                           (* set a breakpoint at the current cursor's position ... 3-keystrokes *)
  C-x C-a C-r                           (* run the program ... 3-keystrokes *)
  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                        (* 34 keystrokes *)


Did somebody succeed in making this less verbose?
Would it be possible to define some macro that would do all this which I could bind to a single key? (e.g. F12 or whichever else).

Thank you in advance for any kind tips.
