Description: The Bash Debugger Project is a source-code debugger for bash,
: which follows the gdb command syntax.
: The purpose of the BASH debugger is to check
: what is going on “inside” a bash script, while it executes:
: * Start a script, specifying conditions that might affect its
: behavior.
: * Stop a script at certain conditions (break points).
: * Examine the state of a script.
: * Experiment, by changing variable values on the fly.
: The 4.0 series is a complete rewrite of the previous series.
: Bashdb can be used with ddd: ddd --debugger /usr/bin/bashdb
: <script-name>.
