Description | The debugDo command is used by LiveCode's message box and debugger. Normally, you should use the do command; consider using debugDo only if you are writing a debugger or similar utility, or if you need to debug the statement list sent by a do command. When the debugger is active, you can use debugDo to access local variable|local variables using the message box. If you enter a debugDo statement into the message box, and the statement refers to a local variable, the variable's value is the current value in the handler that the debugger is executing. This capability is useful if you want to track the current value of a variable in a handler you're debugging.
