Thanks so much for your help!

I'd like but however I couldn't provide the code since they are not in
public domain...

But lets imagine I inherited a big pile of R projects/codes from other
people and there are lots of "source"s in the programs.

And there are many definitions of function "A" in the directories.

I wanted to put a breakpoint into the relavant function "A" that's
currently in the workspace, i.e. the one I am using...

To insert a breakpoint, I need to find its location in the file system... I
need to find where it is...

Simply searching by the name in the file system gave lots of hits...

Thank you!
