Can Splus Workbench do a good job for debugging?

[Michael <comtech.usa@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

I used to use R, and I felt that the major disadvantage of R
(comparing to other programming environment) is its lack of good
debugging facility.

As an experienced programmer, the first thing I look at when working
with a programming language and/or a programming environment is its
debugging facility.

A good debugging facility can sharply reduce the learning curve and
improve productivity.

Now I am experimenting with Splus Workbench.

It seems like a good starting point.

However, how can I set those breakpoints? I "toggled" many times the
breakpoints following the "Run" menu, but I just couldn't figure out
how to toggle a break point.

And how to debug into a function, line by line?

I couldn't figure these things out.

Please help!

Thanks a lot!
