It is useful for hosts with no own debuggers, e.g. Visual Studio NuGet console ("Package Manager Host"), bare runspace host ("Default Host"). And it may be used instead of existing debuggers ("ConsoleHost"). The script is called at any moment when debugging is needed. To restore the original debuggers, invoke Restore-Debugger defined by Add-Debugger. For output of debug commands the script uses Out-Host or a file with a separate console started for watching its tail. For input the input box is used for typing PowerShell and debugger commands. Specify the switch ReadHost for using Read-Host instead. PowerShell commands are invoked in a child of the current scope. In order to change current scope variables you would use `Set-Variable -Scope 1`. But the script recognises `$var = ...` and assigns in the proper scope. .Parameter Path Specifies the output file used instead of Out-Host. A separate console is opened for watching its tail. .Parameter Context Specifies the number of context source lines to show. .Parameter XPos Horizontal position of the input box. .Parameter YPos Vertical position of the input box. .Parameter ReadHost Tells to use Read-Host instead of the input box. .Inputs None .Outputs None .Example > How to debug terminating errors in a bare runspace.
