Hi Sean,
Thanks, that is a great idea that I would like to add to most of my scripts!
However, on second thought, it is not meant for normal use. I have been
considering adding items to the verbosity options before. I keep putting it
off since it seems like it is somewhat complicated and would take a bit of a
learning curve. Could anyone take a first crack at this DEBUG verbosity
entry or provide a simple example?
