One does indeed basically debug at the function level (or set of functions), as desired. The user specifies on the command line a file in which those functions reside. (In time, I can broaden this.) The best way to see the operation is to try the Quick Start. It really IS quick! Just go to http://heather.cs.ucdavis.edu/debugR.html where I've now included the Quick Start. I hope to write up a longer example for Tal's e-newsletter.
