An interesting side benefit this opens up the possibility of debugging languages that compile down to JavaScript, such as Coffeescript or Objective-J.<p>Just attach an editor or a terminal via a websocket, provide a mapping layer between the high-level (Coffee) and low-level (JS) source (line numbers, variables and such), and you're in business.
I'd be willing to pay good money if someone managed to hook this up with Vim.
Making changes on Webkit and copy/pasting back is a pain.<p>I understand it's not trivial, as a lot of html/css and even javascript may be conditionally echoed to the browser by some php, python, etc, so a quick dirty search/replace plugin hack won't do.<p>But still, if someone took it for himself the job of doing so, we'd finally have a decent web developing workflow for a change.
Awesome! Weinre <a href="http://pmuellr.github.com/weinre/" rel="nofollow">http://pmuellr.github.com/weinre/</a> provides similar but more limited functionality and has saved me in so many mobile-specific WTFs I've lost track.
Has anyone built a WebKit for iOS? I routinely use the Mac Webkit for desktop debugging but a quick google search reveals no such beast for iOS.<p>Does anyone have any idea if it is or can be done? Remote debugging on iOS would be <i>outstanding</i>.
This is enabled in the blackberry playbook by default, which is a really really compelling reason for me to get one.<p>I have wondered 1. why it isnt enabled in android webkit by default, 2. how hard it would be to enable given the source, 3. if any android devices are coming out with it enabled.<p>but I havent had enough time to do anything more than wonder, weinre is doing an awesome job in the meantime
