AutoIt3 doesn't support a step by step debugging, but there are several option "to get close to that".

Load the full SciTE4AutoIt3 installer with which you have several options under the Tools option and a directive to show a console message in the SciTE output pane for each line: #autoit3wrapper_run_debug_mode.

On the SciTE4AutoIt3 download page, you can find cvsWrapper, which will do things like auto save changes with a new minor-point version number when you Compile, etc. It requires an existing working install of a CVS to work.

According to the CVSWrapper page it should work on SVN too?

That's the theory. My experiment with TortiseSVN failed, but that was entirely my fault, and the machine I was trying it on got trashed (nothing to do with this), ending the experiment before I made it work.

You will have to install SVN (not TortoiseSVN) to make it work as the install instructions explain. TortoiseSVN is of course nice to have an Explorer integrated SVN client for manual stuff and nice Icon overlays.

I pefer SVN over CVS although I started with CVS as the name indicates.

How about using @scriptline command ?

I tried doing

If @Error Then MSGBOX (64,"","Error at " & @scriptline)

This would return the line of code on which this error occurred , but it when compiled, it returns -1.

Any thoughts on how i can have Error #'s shown when script compiled that would represent the script.au3 name and script line.

If any scripts were included and error caused by one or another script.au3 then error would say

Compiled program.exe Error At includedscript3.au3 and line # 20 for example

That would be a very nice feature, kinda like an Error CODE
