and Modula-2

Some commands have little use when debugging Modula-2 programs. Five subcommands of set print and show print apply specifically to C and C++: `vtbl', `demangle', `asm-demangle', `object', and `union'. The first four apply to C++, and the last to the C union type, which has no direct analogue in Modula-2.

The @ operator (see section Expressions), while available with any language, is not useful with Modula-2. Its intent is to aid the debugging of dynamic arrays, which cannot be created in Modula-2 as they can in C or C++. However, because an address can be specified by an integral constant, the construct `{type}adrexp' is still useful.

In scripts, the Modula-2 inequality operator # is interpreted as the beginning of a comment. Use <> instead.
