Thanks for reply
I would ask only one more thing, mobDebug is a library aside, there is a way I
can only use this function'' step in'' on a button that I have in my interface
without me having to redeploy it?
My entire interface was built in WxLua and I have a button called '' step in''
and I need him to do just that, run command lines starting from a hook.

Hi Lucas,
ZeroBrane Studio is using Mobdebug debugger, which implements "step
in" and "step out" commands.
To answer your question, these commands work this way: the debugger
sets a line hook (using debug.sethook command), which then keeps track
of where in the script is the execution. When you run "step in"
command, it sets a flag to stop at the very next command. The hook
then checks for that flag
(https://github.com/pkulchenko/ZeroBraneStudio/blob/master/lualibs/mobdebug/mobdebug.lua#L514-L520;
the variable is step_into) and if it's set, it suspends the debugging
at that step.
"step out" is a bit more complex, but works in a similar way. When the
command is executed, the debugging keeps the current position in the
stack and only stops when the position in the stack is current-1. It
applies some logic to "fix" stack calculations in some cases and to
make it work for Lua and LuaJIT interpreters (see the explanation
here:
https://github.com/pkulchenko/ZeroBraneStudio/blob/master/lualibs/mobdebug/mobdebug.lua#L451-L462).
It also checks for whether this code is running in a separate
coroutine as coroutines have their own stack.
Paul.
