NAME

       pydevd - Script to start pydevd debugger

SYNOPSIS

       pydevd --port N [--client hostname | --server] [option ...] --file executable

DESCRIPTION

       This  script  runs the pydevd debugger on top of another Python script, making it ready to
       be attached to for remote debugging.  It is typically used by connecting from an IDE, such
       PyDev  or  PyCharm,  or called from debugpy, which is the debugging adapter used in Spyder
       (via IPython), VSCode Python and Visual Studio Python.
