Load javascript via Firebug console

How can I load a javascript file via Firebug console ?

This would be useful in development, so I don't have to modify the html code to load the script.

A very handy command is include();

include("http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js");

Just ran into the same problem, and - as jQuery is used in the project anyway - I decided to do a simple:

$.getScript('example.js')

Or:

$.getScript('example.js', function () { doSomethingOnceLoaded(); })

Alternatively, I may code JavaScript directly in Firebug, using the console with the text entry pane on the right side. Activate it with the triangle button in the lower right hand corner.

var script = document.createElement("script");
script.src = "http://whatever.com/js/my/script.js";
document.body.appendChild(script);
