+====== Pipeline Breakpoint ======
+This command will place a breakpoint in the pipeline that will allow the user assess their current progress before continuing. A dialog will pop-up and a custom message will be shown to the user along with two buttons: one allowing you to resume and the other if you wish to halt. The command is as follows:
+**Pipeline_Breakpoint**
+/PAUSE_MESSAGE=
+**;**
+The message can be formatted using a simple version of the rtf file format.
+For example, the following command will output four separate lines in the breakpoint prompt dialg
+**Pipeline_Breakpoint**
+/PAUSE_MESSAGE= {\rtf1\ansi\deff0
+\pard One\par
+\pard Two\par
+\pard Three\par
+\pard Four\par
+}
+**;**
+===== Syntax Issue =====
+Consider the following:
+/PAUSE_MESSAGE=08/09/2017 by WSS Speed = 0.4
+A forward slash (/) is a special character for pipeline commands that indicates that a parameter_name follows immediately afterwards.
+If an equals sign (=) follows Visual3D confirms that a parameter was specified.
+Two equals signs (==), however, does confirm that a parameter was specified.
+Visual3D searches for an equals sign after each slash because this logically indicates that the user has specified a parameter.
+Pause_Message is assigned the string 08/09
+Visual3D finds an equals sign after the next slash, so interprets the rest of the string as a new parameter
+/2017 by MJT using Modify_Speed_Metric_Ver01 Speed = 0.4
+It doesn't do anything with this parameter because it doesn't recognize it.
+Solution
+remove the = sign
+/PAUSE_MESSAGE=08/09/2017 by WSS Speed 0.4
+or specify two equals signs
+/PAUSE_MESSAGE=08/09/2017 by WSS Speed == 0.4
