[Tutor] Python debugger

[Michael Bernhard Arp Sørensen]

Hi.

Thanks for the input. Your way of doing it is simpler and possible to use as
an alias in pdb.

I can't use a graphical debugger because i mostly code python over ssh on
remote servers in my company.

Thanks anyway. It was actually helpfull. :-)
