Debugger for Vim Code?

[Ovid]

I was wondering if there's any debugger written specifically for Vim
code? I've got a thorny problem on a vim plugin on Solaris (I can't
share the code) and stepping through the code would be lovely (though I
realize this could be difficult, given the nature of vim).

Cheers,
Ovid

As I am sure you found out from Tony's post Vim has a built in
debugger for Vim scripts.

What I would suggest to you is to download and use this plugin by Hari:
" BreakPts - Debug Vim Scripts
" Author: Hari Krishna Dara
" http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=618

I use it regularly and love it.

HTH,
