Hi Christopher
Spoken as someone who actively uses PHP both in webpages, and for scripts on
CLI, the only debugger I am aware of is Gubed (but that's only for PHP &
Webbpages)
Personally, I use the following setup (pseudo code, I could give you the
actuall source code, but this is better because it will actually enhance your
knowledge)
This does not have breakpoints, but if you want them, you can write a function
function breakpoint($info)
{debug($info);
die();}
After that if you want conditional breakpoints, use an assert like function
function assert($var,$value,$msg)
{if($var==$value)
breakpoint($msg);
}
Do you see the light yet?
If you implement it properly, you don't even need to change your source code
when debugging is done.
example flow:
Register_shutdownfunction("debug","dump");
then everywhere in the script,
function dosomething($param)
{debug("domsomething($param)");
...
}
function debug()
{static $data='';
get parameter list
if first param="dump"
{if preferences=dumtofile
writetofile $data
else
writetoconsole $data
}
else
data[]=$parameters
}
}
Can you see the use of this?
Kind regards
Andy

Check out these few php utilities that I released
under the GPL2 and that are meant for use with a
