#### D.6.4.5 init_debug

Procedure from library `classify.lib` (see classify_lib).

Usage:
  init_debug([level]); level=int

Compute:
  Set the global variable @DeBug to level. The variable @DeBug is used by the function debug_log(level, list of strings) to know when to print the list of strings. init_debug() reports only changes of @DeBug.

Note:
  The procedure init_debug(n); is useful as trace-mode. n may range from 0 to 10, higher values of n give more information.

Example:

    LIB "classify.lib";
    init_debug();
    debug_log(1,"no trace information printed");
    init_debug(1);
    ==> Debugging level change from  0  to  1
    debug_log(1,"some trace information");
    ==> some trace information
    init_debug(2);
    ==> Debugging level change from  1  to  2
    debug_log(2,"nice for debugging scripts");
    ==> Debug:(2):  nice for debugging scripts
    init_debug(0);
    ==> Debugging switched off.
