Reading about fdb here and seeing it sometimes in the startup of a build in FD got me curious.
So just tried this fdb thingie via command line.
Workflow zero, but nice outway if I really need it and to know now that it works.
If you want a messy fdb rundown ( more a reminder / note to myself)

Yes, it's the same back-end used by Flex Builder, if I'm not mistaken. Fdb
is indeed almost unusable without a GUI, unless you're a command line freak
and a bit of a masochist, IMO (and you never tried a "visual" debugger).

The idea of integrating a GUI for fdb into FlashDevelop has been
mentioned in the FD forum a number of times. I don't know the current status
of this feature, though. Last time I checked (about 6 or 7 months), it was
on the wish list, but I couldn't find any info on its status. I hope they
manage to get it working. It'd be awesome.

you mentioned earlier in this scenario, and I dunno, a coding environment
without debugging now seems a little silly to me. I wish they'd do a
standalone version of the profiler in Flex Builder, to be honest.
Just as a complete aside, in case people don't realise, there _is_ a
debugger included with the Flex SDK (i.e. the free downloadable SDK).
It's a command-line shell called fdb; it's a bit of a pain to use, but
it can be a godsend if you don't have a full Flex license and if
inserting trace() statements everywhere hasn't helped. :-D
