[Dev] Debugging Chandler with Python's built-in debugger

Dev people --

Is anyone out there skilled with the Python built-in debugger and 
willing to help me out on figuring out how to run Chandler with the 
Python debugger and/or writing up brief (BRIEF!) instructions?

Talking to a few people who've written parcels, I found out that they 
didn't use a debugger.  They didn't use WingIDE because they didn't want 
to spend the money, and our documentation doesn't give a good 
explanation of how to do that.

It thus seems to me that writing up some good docs on how to run 
Chandler under the Python debugger would be time well-leveraged.

We at OSAF mostly use WingIDE, so I believe that we don't have a lot of 
know-how in-house.  I could work on this (I imagine that everything I 
need to know is all out on the Web somewhere), but I'm going on vacation 
in a few days and could use some help.

Anyone?
