I might make use of that sort of thing soon. I'm sure if I add text caching to the Dick 'n' George Bumpersticker Generator I'll need debugging tools.
By the way, here's a little debugging trick. On my machine at home I really don't have SW development tools. I'm using notepad (egad!) to edit PHP. When I get an error at a particular line number (forgetting the $ in variable names or using a paren instead of a curly bracket are popular errors right now), I'm at a loss to find line 297, or whatever, in notepad. But if I copy and paste into a spreadsheet, viola, line numbers!
