Ruby gem `debug_helper` [Version 2.0](https://github.com/BurdetteLamar/debug_helper#new-in-version-20) is up.

The `debug_helper` assists in printf-style debugging by displaying details about objects, often recursively.

New support for custom handlers: previously, the helper supported selected classes in the Ruby core and standard libraries.

Now you can make custom handlers for your own user-defined classes.
