Enable display of debugging messages while doing pattern matching.
        Set C{flag} to True to enable, False to disable.

        Example::
            wd = Word(alphas).setName("alphaword")
            integer = Word(nums).setName("numword")
            term = wd | integer
            
            # turn on debugging for wd
            wd.setDebug()

            OneOrMore(term).parseString("abc 123 xyz 890")
        
        prints::
            Match alphaword at loc 0(1,1)
            Matched alphaword -> ['abc']
            Match alphaword at loc 3(1,4)

            Match alphaword at loc 15(1,16)
            Exception raised:Expected alphaword (at char 15), (line:1, col:16)

        The output shown is that produced by the default debug actions - custom debug actions can be
        specified using L{setDebugActions}. Prior to attempting
        to match the C{wd} expression, the debugging message C{"Match <exprname> at loc <n>(<line>,<col>)"}
        is shown. Then if the parse succeeds, a C{"Matched"} message is shown, or an C{"Exception raised"}
        message is shown. Also note the use of L{setName} to assign a human-readable name to the expression,
        which makes debugging and exception messages easier to understand - for instance, the default
        name created for the C{Word} expression without calling C{setName} is C{"W:(ABCD...)"}.
