Hi,

There is a debbuger called xscheme for STK with the latest version
of STk is broken but with a little bit of work  it may come back to life :)

You can find xscheme  at:

  ftp://kaolin.unice.fr/pub/Contrib/xscheme0.2.tar.gz

Interestingly enough it was develop at UC Berkeley to teach computer 
science.
