I would clear breakpoints....
The 'status' command shows the current breakpoints.

List the breakpoints, which will be preceded by a number. Use 'delete
#' to remove the breakpoint.

delete will delete the breakpoints completely. If i want to disable
them and enable them at a later stage

Ah, I see that I misunderstood the question.

Short answer: no.

There's a $catchbp variable that applies to the 'next' subcommand, and
there's a 'skip' subcommand, but there's no general way to turn off
breakpoints that are currently set.
