11.1 #breakpoint

Syntax:

#breakpoint

#breakpoint is a debugging tool that tells the parser to stop parsing at a specific point. All source code from that point on will be ignored.

The difference between #breakpoint and #stop is that #stop occurs in normal templates (e.g., inside an #if) but #breakpoint is used only when debugging Cheetah. Another difference is that #breakpoint operates at compile time, while #stop is executed at run time while filling the template.
