[IPython-User] IPython.Debugger with v0.10 and 0.11

[Johannes Korn]

Hi

so far I used the following syntax to set breakpoints in my python 
scripts for debugging in ipython v0.10.

However, with ipython v0.11 this does not work anymore (see below). I´m 
not sure where I got this snippet from so maybe this was never intented 
to be used for setting breakpoints?! Is there a method that works in 
ipython v0.10 and v0.11?

Regards

Johannes
