So ever since I found out about the interrupt window I've wanted to do something fun with it. But I don't really know what I can do with it
When I first discovered it while playing with the keyboard on my unfortunately mouse-less Powermac I wanted to know how to get out of it, and my brief exposure to debug environments had me thinking of 'cont' or 'go'; 'G' proved to be a correct guess.
My attempts to guess at single-letter debug commands seemed to fail completely, so I assumed that most of the responsive commands were multi-letter (or they were simply all multi-letter except for G), and my discovery of this easter-egg page (search for "Macintosh SE/30") noted a multi-letter command I wasn't aware of (DM), proving me possibly correct.
But that still doesn't give me a listing of everything available, so what interesting commands are available besides G and DM? this photo of the original Macintosh getting started guide notes a 'Programmer's Switch' at the bottom right, suggesting that Apple included info on how to use the interrupt window and therefore provided a list, so maybe someone can provide info on how to find this list/guide online?
