```bash
npm install --global node-inspect
```
For the old V8 debugger protocol,
node has two options:
1. `node --debug <file>`: Start `file` with remote debugging enabled.
2. `node debug <file>`: Start an interactive CLI debugger for `<file>`.
But for the Chrome inspector protocol,
there's only one: `node --inspect <file>`.
This project tries to provide the missing second option
by re-implementing `node debug` against the new protocol.
```
Usage: node-inspect script.js
node-inspect <host>:<port>
```
