I just discovered this tool after I listened to Dave Shea’s interview by ThinkVitamin, and I must say it’s really nice !

Mezzoblue has published a review : http://www.mezzoblue.com/archives/2006/06/26/xyle_scope/
so did ThinkVitamin : http://www.thinkvitamin.com/reviews/css/xyle-scope/

Both are way better than anything I could write, have a nice reading.
I hope some of you find it interresting, I sure like having this along with TextMate and the FF webdevelopper extension

I’ve tested it a while ago.
A nice app but would be better if it has editing feature.

If you are using a Mac a good free alternative to Xylescope for debugging CSS is WebKit’s ’Web Inspector’

Use this in conjunction with a liberal sprinkling of the outline property and you are flying.

No editing feature though...

Thanks for the tip Ram, this rings a bell but didn’t leave an impression on me... I’ll give it a second look though
