The patch implements the "until" command in pdb "until" command continues execution until the line with a number greater than the current one is reached or until the current frame returns""" which allows to quickly step through the loops or list comprehensions without using temporary breakpoints...(temporary breakpoints are often less convenient: more to type, and the user needs to think about line numbers) The name "until" is borrowed from gdb.. There is a small issue of abbreviations current pdb abbreviates up as "u" until as "unt" While gdb abbreviates until as "u", and up has no abbreviation... Should abbreviations be synced?
Any more progress on this issue? I ran into this same issue today and was very annoyed at the behavior of pdb in this regard. What must be done to include this in the mainstream pdb distribution?
