_U_s_a_g_e_:

     browser()

_V_a_l_u_e_:

     A call to `browser' causes a pause in the execution of
     the current expression and runs a copy of the R inter-
     preter which has access to variables local to the envi-
     ronment where the call took place.  Local variables can
     be listed with `ls', and manipulated with R expressions
     typed to this sub-interpreter.  The interpreter copy is
     exited by typing `c'.  Execution then resumes at the
     statement following the call to `browser'.

     Typing `n' causes the step-through-debugger, to start
     and it is possible to step through the remainder of the
     function one line at a time.

     Typing `Q' quits the current execution and returns you
     to the top-level prompt.

_S_e_e _A_l_s_o_:

     `debug', and `traceback' for the stack an error.
