Since you mention you prefer something simpler, I'm out of suggestions as I use Emacs and it is far from simple. However if you still want to give that a try, then open emacs like this, $ emacs +line_no /path/to/script This will open the script with the cursor at line line_no.

As I said, I haven't used the package yet. So can't help you with the specifics. Try looking at the man page for bashdb, that should have basic guidelines on how to use it.
