The goto Command (DBX Mode)

The goto command is intended for the users who want to 'skip over' the execution of a portion of source code.

cont_from_place_command

: goto line_expression

line_expression

: expression

The goto command should be used with care or not at all. Even if the code was compiled without optimization, the compiler may have re-used registers and moved instructions in a way which means that source lines and actual instructions do not completely match up. This means that skipping instructions with the goto command may not lead to the result that users expect based on the idea that they are skipping lines.
