From the README
A tiny JavaScript debugging utility modelled after Node.js core's debugging technique. Works in Node.js and web browsers.
debugexposes a function; simply pass this function the name of your module, and it will return a decorated version ofconsole.errorfor you to pass debug statements to. This will allow you to toggle the debug output for different parts of your module as well as the module as a whole.The
DEBUGenvironment variable is then used to enable these based on space or comma-delimited names.
