YEah, but they can be added to a running script.
I almost never need to insert a breakpoint command, so your mileage may
vary. The red dots don't always work, but for me they do most of the time.
I've never had the debugger ignore a specifically written
'breakpoint' in a script, so that's what I ALWAYS use.
I have yet to get one to work in preOpenStack (at least for the main
stack) unless I precede it with an answer . . .
The preOpen-everythings on the first card are the main occasion where I
do need to insert a scripted breakpoint. Those work if the stack is
opened from within the IDE. Double-clicking the stack to launch the IDE
doesn't always break; I always thought the debugger wasn't available yet
when that happens.
