Regarding requirement - yes. I believe that it would be a powerful
debugging tool to develop. It would be so powerful for analyzing code
flow of flows for very large projects - that an ordinary developer can
understand code in minutes. Say I have 100,000,00 Lines of code.
Debugging using GDB or any other mechanism would be really difficult
that I know. If I have after each statement
print("%s %d\n", __FILE__, __LINE__);
I can know where my code is flowing during execution. I a firm
believer that this tool will help developers a lot for debugging /
analyzing and profiling code.

Prakash
