Simple Dumps
First note that you can take an easy quick look at the PHP code that produced
the output you see here. Just click on the underlined filename
and line in the first line of header. This will open a source snippet with the
line number of the HLI function call marked with red background.
Some configuration options are shown here. They are set via the function
hli(). To use it, pass the option's name as first and the new
value as second parameter.
All dumps on this page are done without any plugins and can be accomplished from inside
plugins, too. It's like a generic highlighter. Plugins are disabled using the
following command, but it's very unlikely that you will ever use it …
hli('clearPlugins');
String Dump
String dumping has the goal to print the string as it would be printed in
text/plain, meaning that XML-tags and -entities are displayed plain and
backslashes are printed as are.

42 By default, strings are surrounded by single quotes as is IMHO the recommended
43 way to write strings in PHP. However, if you don't like that, you can set it to
44 use double quotes or even no quotes by the following commands:

46 <?php printEvald("hli('quotesOnStrings','double');")?>
47 <?php pre('A string with double quotes'); ?>

Also these dumps are all done this only one function call: You can pass any
number of parameters to remote functions and get them all dumped one by one.
HLI will only print the backtrace and the source snippet once.
