A small arrow in the source window, indicates the current ;; line. ;; Starting up: ;; In order to use this facility, invoke the command PERLDB to obtain a ;; shell window with the appropriate command bindings. You will be asked ;; for the name of a file to run and additional command line arguments. ;; Perldb will be invoked on this file, in a window named *perldb-foo* ;; if the file is foo. ;; M-s steps by one line, and redisplays the source file and line. ;; You may easily create additional commands and bindings to interact ;; with the display. For example to put the perl debugger command n on \M-n ;; (def-perldb n "\M-n") ;; This causes the emacs command perldb-next to be defined, and runs ;; perldb-display-frame after the command. ;; perldb-display-frame is the basic display function. It tries to display ;; in the other window, the file and line corresponding to the current ;; position in the perldb window. For example after a perldb-step, it would ;; display the line corresponding to the position for the last step. Or ;; if you have done a backtrace in the perldb buffer, and move the cursor ;; into one of the frames, it would display the position corresponding to ;; that frame. ;; perldb-display-frame is invoked automatically when a filename-and-line-number ;; appears in the output.
