debug -- open the private dictionary of a package

Synopsis

Usage:

debug pkg
Inputs:
- pkg, a package,
Consequences:
- the private dictionary of the package pkg is added to dictionaryPath so its non-exported symbols are visible to the user

Description

For example, the private dictionary for Macaulay2 may be opened using

i1 : debug Core

This allows access to the low level ("raw") routines implemented by the Macaulay2 engine, although this is mainly useful for debugging Macaulay2 itself.

i2 : R = QQ[a..d];

i3 : raw R

o3 = QQGMP[a,b,c,d,
       DegreeLength => 1,
       Degrees => {1, 1, 1, 1},
       Heft => {1},
       MonomialOrder => {
         GRevLex => {1,1,1,1},
         Position => Up
         }
       ]

o3 : RawRing
