I used debug.exe just a few semesters ago, but I don't remember it well.  If
you have an executable that you have already assembled, then check out
gdb...(GNU debugger).  It is a staple for any linux programmer, in fact, if
you go on to higher level programs like c or c++ you can use if for those
also.  There are also quite a few GUI frontends to make it easier to use.
