I agree; at the same time, though, it'd be nice to have a collection of
debugging functions to use while developing. I frequently find myself
writing code to do the same thing when I have an issue. Printing out a
table is by far the most common, and I posted code when I was first
starting .

I suppose I can have a local file for doing debug stuff, but then others
don't have the chance to benefit from it.

Thoughts?

Nice! I searched a bit for a function like that, but didn't find one (I
might have seen that page, but saw it was serialization and skipped it).
I'm happy to see that my code looks almost identical to their code (the
simple version, anyway).
