Dbgee - the Zero-Configuration Debuggee for Debuggers

With Dbgee, you can start a debug session without writing any launch.json by just launching your program in the integrated terminal. Also, Dbgee's ability to pre-set a debug session to start allows you to start debugging no matter how your program is launched.

Dbgee frees you from the hassle of writing launch.json. It's also very useful especially when your program requires command line arguments or redirection, or when your program is launched by some script.
