Especially the latest 3.2 release which provides "breakpoint" support. So you can stop a request mid flight, optionally change it, or stop the response before it's returned and optionally change that. Very nice utility. http://xk72.com/blog/2008/03/24/charles-32-released/ +1 for Charles. Especially the latest 3.2 release which provides “breakpoint” support.

It's Java based so it's cross-platform, and it has a very nice set of features (including a bandwidth throttle!).

Wordpress ate a couple of my greater than and less than signs. I've fixed the command above. @Sigfried - that looks like a nice extension and I haven't seen it before. The ability to modify the request and resend would be very useful without having to hand code something in a groovy or curl script. @Matthew - doh!
