History probe is awesome

[jyang72211]

Recently, I started to use the history probe that Darren created.  I think it is a great tool.  The feature that would stop the program if a wire's value fulfill a condition is the missing tool in LabVIEW all along.  I believe that this feature increase my productivity by 200%.  If you don't have it yet, you can download it at location below.

I believe conditional probes were introduced (and several were included) in LV 7.0, so that's 9 years. Just right click a wire and select Custom Probe>>Conditional...

Of course, you can also write them yourself.
