how to set breakpoints from within js code?

[remy.damour]

Hi,

Is there a way to trigger a breakpoint from within the code itself
(ie. without having to open firebug, look for your file, search where
you want to set your breakpoint and click with the mouse).

Is there any console.break() function that might be called or
equivalent?

I tried to find it but with no success so far.
Regards,
Remy
