Is this _inside_ the debugger? It is possible the debugger is in single-step mode (I have never used it), and it is stopping here so that you can step through the script. If you run the script as: sh -vx /path/to/the/script does it stop there as well? The -v recites script lines as they are read, and the -x shows commands as they are executed. The line: cd `dirname $0` should show _once_ for the -v as it reads the line, and as two commands for the -x: it will run "dirname $0", and then a "cd /path/to/the" (which is what "dirname" is producing from /path/to/the/script). On the subject of editors at the command line, you may prefer to avoid "vi" and "emacs" and use the command "nano", which is a small and point-and-type style editor.
