Hello, I am a bit lost with the various discussions on debugging being or not being available, depending on the version of Julia (and Juno).  
I remember for some times there has been the possibility to step into a function in Juno (with `Juno.@step myFunction`) and run it line-by-line, and some said that setting breakpoints was also on the way too.

Which is the current situation ?

I seems to have a `UndefVarError: @step not defined` error trying to use `@step`.  
[Juno doc](http://docs.junolab.org/stable/man/basic_usage.html) shows the step-by-step functionality (with a `@enter` macro), but I can’t replicate it.

Not exactly answering your question, but check this really cool package: [GitHub - timholy/Rebugger.jl: An expression-level debugger for Julia with a provocative command-line (REPL) user interface](https://github.com/timholy/Rebugger.jl)
