(41C) How to edit & debug complex programs?
I am getting started with HP 41C FOCAL programming. What really is limiting
for me that even with BST and STP in PRGM mode it’s really hard to look through the code.

I totally get the minimalistic environment by today’s standards, but was wondering
if people can share some best practices on how to develop, debug, and enter modified
FOCAL code into V41 on Windows or i41CX+ on iOS.

So far the method that worked for me is this:
1) enter the code into Notepad++ or a text editor on Windows where I have line
numbers.
2) manually enter or copy/paste the code into the emulator
3) run and test the program in the emulator
4) make changes to the code in the text editor on Windows
5) make the same change to the code in the emulator. Go to 3)
6) Save the working program into a raw file and archive.

Does anyone have a better/faster process/workflow?
Thanks in advance.,
A
