Using Group Commands
Group commands are often more useful than process commands.
It is often more useful to use the
Group > Go
command to restart the whole application instead of the
Process > Go
command.
CLI:
dfocus
g
dgo
Abbreviation: G
You would then use the
Group > Halt
command instead of
Process > Halt
to stop execution.
CLI:
dfocus
g
dhalt
Abbreviation: H
The group-level single-stepping commands such as
Group > Step
and
Group > Next
let you single-step a group of processes in a parallel. See
“
Stepping (Part I)”
