Hi,

  you can probably use natfeat "DEBUGPRINTF".
  Joy, why did you remove something and nobody knows it?
  Btw. a documentation (a list of natfeats) is still very bad :-(
  Johan and Konrad, sorry. Joy is very busy and he works on many things
simultaneously.
  Best regars,

           Milan Jurik
