Is there a way to strip out all functions in hundreds of R script?
And then I can create a script which does "debug(foo1); debug(foo2);
debug(foo3);",etc?

Not a simple one. You could try parsing all the scripts, and look for function definitions, and then see where those were assigned.

It would be easier to organize your scripts so that some of them define functions, and others call them. Then just define all the functions, and use ls() to find their names.

Thank you!

    When you see you are about to enter one that you haven't marked, you
    can mark it from within the debugger.  (So in some other debuggers
    you'd type "s" to step in; in R you need to type "debug(foo)" then "n".

                 Hi all,

                 I know I can put a "browser()" into any place...

                 but how to step into sub-routines?

                 Keep pressing "n" at the break-point seems not getting
        me into the
                 sub-routines?


             Mark all your functions for debugging using debug().  It's
        not like
             a debugger that will single step until you tell it to just
        continue
             on, but it gives you the individual steps.

             When you've had enough of that, use undebug() to mark the
        functions
             for stepping over.
