a_debug.rb - for embedding debug statements in Ruby code

License: Same as Ruby

This module provides two methods (debug and dfh) that I like to use to embed debugging statements into my ruby code. The following command line arguments can be used when running your programs:

To see debug for some debug, the higher the number the more debug:
```
  debug_level 20
```
To see all debug:
```
  debug_level 99
```
You can filter debug statements and reduce the amount of debug by specifying
```
  debug_filter "MyClass|myFunction"
  debug_filter MyClass
```
The debug_filter is converted to a regexp and every debug is matched against before it is printed. The first examples will print if first argument of the debut matches the text MyClass or myFunction. This allows you to debug a particular class or module and include any other function calls (assuming the first parameter of your debug is dfh(). The second example will report only MyClass debug statements.
