Easy debugging, profiling and tracing extension for Xdebug
A must have for everyone thats debugging, profiling and tracing PHP code with Xdebug. This extension will help you to enable/disable debugging, profiling and tracing easily, instead of juggling around with POST/GET variables or cookies.
This extension is very useful for PHP developers that are using PHP tools with Xdebug support like PHPStorm, Eclipse with PDT, Netbeans and MacGDBp or any other Xdebug compatible profiling tool like KCacheGrind, WinCacheGrind or Webgrind.
By default the extension icon will show up on all pages, but to keep your browser as clean as possible, the extension can be configured to be only visible at the pages you want in the settings panel.
To toggle debug status: Alt + Shift +X
