You'll find a Python icon in the system tray. Right click on this, and
select 'Break into running code'.

Are you talking about a breakpoint? If so, it varies from debugger to
debugger. In PythonWin, hit F9 in the line where you want to break, and make
sure that you activate the debugger when you run your script.
