Abstract: XDDT, the result of merging the features of the DDT-UP
(DECUS NO. 8-19a) and XOD (DECUS NO. 8-89), is an octal-symbolic
debugging program for extended memory which preserves the status of
the program interrupt system at breakpoints and includes many improvements
over its predecessors.

From the Teletype, the user can symbolically examine and modify the
contents of any memory location in a variety of formats. Positive and
negative block searches with a mask may also be performed.

XDDT includes an elaborate single-breakpoint facility to help the user
run sections of his program.

The ability to punch binary tapes is not included in XDDT.
