Have you noticed when you try to launch pdb (python debugger)
that it assumes pdb is in the current directory??

You must manually type this on Red Hat Linux....

/usr/lib/python2.2/pdb.py myfile.py

*** Is there someway to 1. hardwire the path to pdb and 
                                    2. the filename to current buffer editing???

Finally, you must press "step" a few times to actually load your
file and begin stepping thru it.  It would be nicer if file automatically
was loaded and ready to be stepped thru.

Any of this sound familiar???
