I just tried out Webscarab so from the perspective of a new user here 
is how to get started:

To run from command line: java -jar webscarab-xxxxxxxxx.jar

Configure your web browser to use proxy localhost 8008.

In Webscarab click File, New. Click on a directory where data and
settings will be saved and click Choose.  Now web traffic to and
from the browser will be recorded by Webscarab.

To intercept traffic, ie modify requests on the fly, before they
reach the server: click Proxy, Manual Edit and check Intercept
Requests.

To edit and replay previous requests: click Manual Request, select
the previous request from drop down list. Make your changes and
click Fetch Response.
