I can't seem to find basic information about using the debugger in my B+ documentation - has anyone written a note on the subject?
Simple info like - the meaning of the iconbar icons; How to set a breakpoint; how to inspect arrays - they don't appear in the globals window

The Debug Icons are Pause Continue StepOver StepInto StepOut and Stop
If Debug is enabled, clicking Pause stops execution at that point and the other icons become active...
Pause
Pauses the currently running program.
Continue
Resumes program execution after pause.
StepOver
Executes the next program statement and stops.
If the next statement is a function call, the entire function is executed before the program is stopped.
StepInto
Executes the next program statement and stops. If the next statement is a function call, then program execution stops at the first statement of the function.
StepOut
When used inside a function, this will cause all statements to be executed until the function returns to it's caller. The program will then stop at the statement following the function call.
End
Terminates program execution and returns you to the editor.

I bet you pretty much figured all that yourself, and there may be command line switches to do more sophisticated debugging...
Can anyone help with something on command line and debug?

Are there any tricks out there for debugging arrays (both variants -- () and [])?
Thanks for the info keyboard and soja

Now you've lost me - what's a [] array?
