Well,
I must say this list is full of really cool people - shout out
to Mike woods. Here is a short (although) not complete compilation
of what I've gotten back.
Tool Desc.
------------------- ---------------------
dmalloc -
http://www.dmalloc.com library shareware - needs platform specific
compilation - nice tool - lots of platforms.
third / atom - OS supplied /usr/bin man pages available - tried it out but wasn't
may need SA to install too great. May have not used it to full
effectiveness, but gave me nothing to work with.
Please do not judge this tool on my opinion of course.
Insure? Have not tried it out - requires license I
believe.
GPA (graphical Program Ananlysis) Looks interesting - haven't tried yet but is next
on my list. Looks like it's free.

Purify - needs license - may not be
available for Tru64 either.
