The most commonly used tool for debugging LilyPond is the GNU
debugger gdb. The gdb tool is used for investigating and debugging
-core Lilypond code written in C++. Another tool is available for

debugging Scheme code using the Guile debugger. This section
describes how to use both gdb and the Guile Debugger.
