Since someone else might not know, as I didn't at one time, just type stdlog
and press return in MacsBug.  You will then get gobs of information that you
will find very edifying (or not).  Then es cape as you normally do.  There
will be a text file on your desktop (at least that is where mine appears)
named stdlog.

HTH,
