Hi Frank,

i've experienced the same problem today. The first thing i did was to read the
hints&tips.txt
file. There is a section concerning the debugger:

* Wenn Zeilennummern und Haltepunkte nicht synchron sind,
untersuchen Sie den Quelltext auf nicht dazugeh�rige Zeichen.
Gew�hnlich kommt dieses Problem von einem externen Editor,
der nicht CR/LF als Zeichen f�r das Zeilenende verwendet. Diese
Zeichen schleichen sich in den Quelltext, wenn das Programm
au�erhalb der IDE oder mittels der Zwischenablage bearbeitet
wurde. Diese Zeichen sollten durch regul�re CR/LF ersetzt werden.

It mainly says that there is a problem if you use external editors
(or clipboard) because they produce some different CR/LF
combinations.

My source (6000 lines) contained 4500 CR/LF and 1000 LF/CR and
500 different sequences. So this could not be the exact reason. I have
found, that my code contained 22 (!) combinations of LF/CR/LF/CR.
Under some conditions (about 30 %) these LF/CR/LF/CR (0A0D0A0D)
sequences caused the problem mentioned above. After fixing that 30% the
debugger works correctly again.
