in thread Specifying a Filename in a Breakpoint in the Perl Debugger

Ahh, I see. I had used that before, but I had read the docs as b subname, not thinking that I could use the full package name of a sub.

My only complaint is that will set a breakpoint on entry to the sub. If the sub is many lines long, I want to give a line number, like b some/file/name 1165...

(Or, I could be a good little agile programmer and write shorter subs....)

Thanks for the response!
