desk check

desk check n.,v.  To {grovel} over hardcopy of source
   code, mentally simulating the control flow; a method of catching
   bugs.  No longer common practice in this age of on-screen editing,
   fast compiles, and sophisticated debuggers -- though some maintain
   stoutly that it ought to be.  Compare {eyeball search},
   {vdiff}, {vgrep}.
