Xdebug 2 on localhost

I am using a testing server on Windows, I set it up via Kevin Yanks instruction from the book PHP & MYSQL NOVICE TO NINJA and I am using the Appendix A: Manual Installation. I am not using an IDE like net beans, or eclipse I just use Notepad++ and Firefox. My question is with this type of setup is it possible to use Xdebug 2? Also has anybody seen any instruction on setting it up? Thanks
