MuForce is based on the Enforcer © 1992-1998 Mike Sinz, check

MuForce is a mmu.library aware debugging tool that works very much like
Mike Sinz's "Enforcer" debugging tool. The "Enforcer" sources were
provided by Michael Sinz and have been re-worked to get aware of the
"mmu.library". Thanks a lot, Mike!
MuForce is able to detect "lost pointers" by access-protecting memory
regions that should not be touched.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This tool is part of the MMULib distribution. To find out more about the
mmu.library and its goals, download util/libs/MMULib.lha.

New in release 47.1:
- This release supports SegTracker v47 and is able to print symbol
and line number information of MuForce hits if such information
is present in the faulty binary and SegTracker had been instructed
to load it.
- SegTracker v47 is included as contribution.
New in release 46.4:
- The Alert and Guru patches now also print the PC at which the
fault was detected.
- Also included a new version of the disassembler.library which
fixes the disassembly of fmovem with multiple immediate sources.
New in release 46.3:
- Not much changed, though StackCheck now also checks data through
SegTracker that is not longword aligned.
