How to find the breakpoint numbers in pdb (ipdb)?

Trying to find how to execute ipdb (or pdb) commands such as `disable`. Calling the `h` command on `disable` says disable bpnumber [bpnumber ...] Disables the breakpoints given as a space separated list of bp numbers. So how whould I get those bp numbers? was looking through the list of commands and couldn't get any to display the bp numbers [EDIT] The `break`, `b` and `info breakpoints` commands don't do anything, although in my module i clearly have 1 breakpoint set like this `import pdb; pdb.set_trace( )` - same for `ipdb`. Moreover `info` is not defined. The output of `help` in `pdb`: Documented commands (type help ): ======================================== EOF bt cont enable jump pp run unt a c continue exit l q s until alias cl d h list quit step up args clear debug help n r tbreak w b commands disable ignore next restart u whatis break condition down j p return unalias where Miscellaneous help topics: ========================== exec pdb Undocumented commands: ====================== retval rv And for `ipdb`: Documented commands (type help ): ======================================== EOF bt cont enable jump pdef psource run unt a c continue exit l pdoc q s until alias cl d h list pfile quit step up args clear debug help n pinfo r tbreak w b commands disable ignore next pinfo2 restart u whatis break condition down j p pp return unalias where Miscellaneous help topics: ========================== exec pdb Undocumented commands: ====================== retval rv I have saved my module as pb3.py and am executing it within the command line like this python -m pb3 The execution does indeed stop at the breakpoint, but within di pdb (ipdb) console, the commands indicated don't display anything - or display a NameError If more info is needed, i will provide it.
