in thread I never use the debugger.

Hmmm?

b My::App::some_function $_[3] > 999
Sets the breakpoint on My::App::some_function only if the 4th argument is numerically larger than 999. Similar structure for line breaks:
b 215 $i > 999
I use it all the time. It's invaluable.

    The documentation on that feature has changed: it used to read "b <linenumber> <expr>", and no matter what I tried, the debugger wouldn't stop, not even with b <linenumber> 1, so I gave up on it years ago.

    You're saying it's a stable, reliable feature now? A debugger feature that doesn't work is worse than none, really...
