[Qgis-developer] debug/verbose mode?

[John C. Tull]

You can try to run qgis from the terminal. I do this sometimes and it  
seems to give me reasonable debug output. Alternatively, there is  
Console.app. I think you probably know about these two options, but,  
in case, I execute from the Terminal with:
/Applications/qgis1.1.0.app/Contents/MacOS/qgis

Or whatever the bundle name might be.
