                      8: .SH DESCRIPTION
                      9: The given command is executed, but stopped before 
                     10: .B main()
                     11: is called so that
                     12: the process can be picked up by a debugger.

                     16: .SH BUGS
                     17: On the Sun debugged processes still share their text segments.
                     18: Thus if multiple instances of an executable are running, it is
                     19: impossible to set breakpoints.  A simple fix is to copy the
                     20: executable to a new file and debug the new file.
                     21: .PP
                     22: Attempting to use \fIdbx\fR(1) or \fIdbxtool\fR(1) to attach
                     23: to a process started with \fIhang\fR will fail and inhibit all
                     24: future debugging on the system until it is rebooted.
