[Coco] CoCo BASIC Interpreter

OK, here’s a question about the CoCo BASIC interpreter for all of you guys and gals who know much more about interpreters than I do.

Since CoCo BASIC is an interpreted language, I assume CoCo’s interpreter reads a line of BASIC code, then translates that to some version of machine code, then executes that ML code, then returns to the interpreter for the next line of BASIC.  Assuming this is mostly correct, where is that generated ML code stored temporarily?  What I would like to do is examine that ML code after the BASIC line is interpreted.  I’d need to be able to view the code plus the contents of most of the registers.

Maybe this is an easy question for Art Flexser to answer because of all his work with ADOS.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
