You're right, Gene. Nothing can cover all situations. But any
logical condition will do. Two generic strategies I've used when I
don't necessarily have some well-defined condition are:
ASSERT .F. MESSAGE [Debug now?]
And
ASSERT NOT FILE([debugnow.txt]) MESSAGE [debug now?]
The first is pretty much a sledge hammer so every time I use that
one I get prompted about going into debug mode. The latter allows me
to control the debug prompt by using the presence or absence of an
external file as opposed to some application condition.
I was using a variety of sledgehammer. Having to skip through
a bunch of unneeded stuff is a timewaster. When the issue is
event-related, it can also result in the event firings being different.
The OKL approach is even simpler than creating a file. Just
enter a keystroke.
