If I try:

dofile("addons/enhanced_debug_scripts.wad/debug.lua")


or

dofile("/addons/enhanced_debug_scripts.wad/debug.lua")


or

dofile("../addons/enhanced_debug_scripts.wad/debug.lua")


the console couldn't find my script file.

What is the correct syntax?

BTW:

 include "addons/enhanced_debug_scripts.wad/debug.lua" 


seems to work.

include is the one you should use preferably because it resolves filepaths relative to the home directory, data directory, or map as appropriate. dofile is a Lua built-in function which can be used for any file on your system; it requires the absolute path to the file or a path relative to the current working directory.
