+There is now a streamlined and easy process to install the environment variables. Just extract CEdev and run the win_setup.exe as admin, and it will create them for you. You will have to put CEdev in C:\ but, that is not a big deal :)

			You may have found that being able to display and locate bugs might be helpful, but how would you do that? This part of the guide will show you how.
			----
			===Requirements===
			----
			You need to download [https://github.com/CE-Programming/CEmu CEmu] (if you don't know how to build it, download the latest version from [http://pimathbrainiac.me/CEmu/ pimath's website].
			Be sure to also add '''#include <debug.h>''' at the top of your program, and change '''NDEBUG to DEBUG''' in the makefile
			----
			===dbg_sprintf()===
			----
			The first and most important command, '''dbg_sprintf()''' lets you print variables and strings to the CEmu console

			To print a string, run this: '''dbg_sprintf(dbgout, "This is my string!\n");'''

			To print a variable, run this: '''dbg_sprintf(dbgout, "%d\n", variableName);'''

			To print a variable and a string, run this: '''dbg_sprintf(dbgout, "This is my variable: %d\n", variableName); '''
			----
			===Getting the Ouput===
			----
			After you have inserted those commands, to get the output, send your program to CEmu, and enable the console: '''Docks > Console'''

			Start your program, and you should see your text in the console whenever it ran.
			----
			===Other Info===
			----
			There is some documentation of the library here: https://github.com/CE-Programming/toolchain/blob/master/CEdev/include/ce/c/debug.h
