basic.debugger.e

Command/BASIC: Debugger, Releases: AP, R83, and AP 6.0 FlashBASIC

Sets number of instructions to execute before entering debugger.

Syntax

e{number.lines}

Description

indicates the number of instructions to execute prior to returning to the Pick/BASIC debugger.

The 'e' command, followed by a <return>, disables the previous iteration counter setting and executes 'continuously'.

Example

*e10<return>
Sets execution counter.
*g<return>
Resumes program execution.

This invokes the debugger after executing 10 lines.

*e<return>
Sets 'continuous' execution.
*g<return>
Resumes program execution.

This cancels any previous 'e' commands and makes the program run
without execution interruption. The 'g' command must follow after the
'e' command to resume the program.
