Action:

Sets breakpoints on lines that match a search string (see Setting multiple breakpoints at once).

Syntax:

breaksAt [string]

where string is the search string or regular expression. The default is to use the value in the Search text box.

Note: The search for the lines on which to set breakpoints begins from the current line, so you probably should precede breaksAt by a top command if used in a macro.

In a macro (only), you must explicitly specify the string at which breaksAt is to break.
