Debugging Aids
MRS Checking
If your profile has MRSs scored, you can check whether they scope or not by setting the switch Options | Result Filter | Mrs Scoping and then browsing the results: Browse | Results. Helpful diagnostic messages should be ouptut in the *common-lisp* buffer.
Note, if you have too many results stored, then this will be either very slow, or crash. You should only really do it for profiles with 1 or 2 results per item.
