Below the Watch List box and to the left are two buttons that will put
the BASIC module in Single Step mode or clear Single Step mode. In
the module, Single-Step is enabled until it is disabled. When
Single-Step is enabled, clicking RUN causes the module to execute the
first line of the program and stop. Also, when Single-Step is enabled,
clicking CONT causes the module to execute the next line of BASIC
programming and stop.
