14.3 Main Debugger Commands
===========================

The 'gawk' debugger command set can be divided into the following
categories:

   * Breakpoint control

   * Execution control

   * Viewing and changing data

   * Working with the stack

   * Getting information

   * Miscellaneous

   Each of these are discussed in the following subsections.  In the
following descriptions, commands that may be abbreviated show the
abbreviation on a second description line.  A debugger command name may
also be truncated if that partial name is unambiguous.  The debugger has
the built-in capability to automatically repeat the previous command
just by hitting 'Enter'.  This works for the commands 'list', 'next',
'nexti', 'step', 'stepi', and 'continue' executed without any argument.
