Err, not as far as I'm aware of. There are a few docs at Venkman's 
project page: <http://www.mozilla.org/projects/venkman/>. Typing "help" 
into the Venkman console also provides some additional info.

Note that dump() by itself is astoundingly useful, and doesn't require 
Venkman to use. Enable it in your prefs, in the Debug category, ensure 
"Enable JavaScript dump() output" is checked. Then, when you call 
'dump("some string\n");' in your Javascript the string parameter will 
get dumped to the console. Under a UNIX, that's the terminal you started 
it from, under Windows and Macs, I think you need to start Moz from the 
command line with a special option so it keeps running in the foreground.

Of course, the whole point of dump() is to allow you to put trace 
logging into your JS code, and not have to use alert() to do so. No more 
dismissing 100's of alerts as you roll over various elements on your page.

No problem. 8)
