.. _bpdb: bpdb ==== To enable bpython support within pdb, start pdb with the following code: .. code-block:: python import bpdb bpdb.set_trace() This will drop you into bpdb instead of pdb, which works exactly like pdb except that you can additionally start bpython at the current stack frame by issuing the command `Bpython` or `B`. You can exit bpython with `^d` to return to bpdb.
