break

Function: break { string -> }

file: job.t
package: muf
status: alpha

This function is a quick and simple way of invoking the debugger. It is intended to be inserted as a temporary debugging technique, not as a routine production coding method. It packages up the given string as the :formatString in a simpleEvent event block, and then invokes ]doBreak.

The break function is a convenience:

"some-string" break

is equivalent to

[   :event .err.simpleEvent
    :formatString "some-string"
| ]break

If @$s.breakDisable is set non-nil, break become a no-op which does nothing but check and pop its argument.

See section ]break. See section ]doBreak.
