Starting the Program 

Once you start the debugger and you are ready to begin debugging your
program, enter either an r (run), R (Run), s (step) or S (Step) command.
The r (run) command starts execution of the program and allows you to
enter arguments with it.  The R (Run) command, as shown below, starts
executing the program, but does not allow you to enter run-time
arguments:

     >R

To execute one statement (or one step of a Pascal statement) at a time,
enter either the s (step) or S (Step) command.  The initial step command
executes the first statement of the program.  The following s (step)
command allows single-stepping through the program and any procedures
that it contains:

     >s

The following S (Step) command allows single-stepping through the
program, stepping over procedure calls--A procedure call is treated as a
single statement.

     >S


NOTE HP Symbolic Debugger commands are case sensitive; you must type them exactly as documented. To see command syntax, refer to each command's listing in chapter 4 "HP Symbolic Debugger Commands".
