Perl debugger basics

start the debugger with perl -d script.pl

• n - next step
• s - step into
• c - continue
• b 100 - break at line 100
• b sub - break at sub 'sub' (must be in the right file)

• { v - display the surrounding lines before each step

How could I do p "-" x 100; v in one step?

• w $var - watch variable $var (displays changed $var and stops)
