Script Debugger relies on AppleScript and the AEPrint library to
display all values. Script Debugger 3.0.3 and below use a hacked
version of the AEPrint library that fixed the problems displaying real
values. However, with the advent of Mac OS X 10.2, this hacked
version no longer works. SD3.0.4 and later revert to using the
standard system AEPrint code which is (still) buggy when it comes to
displaying reals even though I filed a bug on this almost a year ago.
For the "hacked version of the AEPrint library" are you by any chance
referring to a portion of the AEGizmos code where there is a lot of
casting going on in a switch statement. If so, phew, that was not fun.
You may wish to communicate with either Jon Guyer or Daniel Steffen of
the Alpha application to reinforce the bug because I seem to remember
one of them mentioning something similar many months ago. It would seem
the bug has been carried through even though a fix is known.
Best wishes,
