I disagree. All my applications, except for three CGI apps, are GUI
and event driven. Due to the state of debugger support in FPC/Lazarus,
I have to use console output or log files. That's the only way I can
reliably debug my programs. Writing unit tests as I do for our work
projects, at least narrows down the location of the bug, but it cases
like fpGUI Toolkit itself where there are no unit tests, it takes a
bit more work and time.

But I do agree with ABorka... having a fully working debugger greatly
increases development time.
