Entering Commands From the Command Line

4.1 Entering Commands From the Command Line
The debugger supports a complete set of commands that help you to control
and monitor program execution, customize the display, and perform other
tasks. These commands are discussed in the various sections throughout this
book, as they apply to the topic that is being discussed. Chapter 11,
Summary
of Commands and Special Keys, summarizes all of the debugger commands
with an alphabetic reference.
Although there are a variety of methods for entering most of the commands,
all of the commands can be entered by typing them on the command line in
the COMMAND window. Figure 4–1 shows the COMMAND window.

The COMMAND window serves two purposes:
-
The command line portion of the window provides you with an area for en-
tering commands. For example, the command line in Figure 4–1 shows
that a STEP command was typed in (but not yet entered).
-
The display area provides the debugger with a space for echoing com-
mands, displaying command output, or displaying errors and messages
for you to read. For example, the command output in Figure 4–1 shows
the messages that are displayed when you first bring up the debugger and
also shows that a GO MAIN command was entered.
If you enter a command through an alternate method (using the mouse, a
pulldown menu, or function keys), the COMMAND window doesn’t echo
the entered command.
