Huh? When I run "sh -x t*.sh", it lists _every_ command that was executed in the script, and even more: it shows me the result, too! If there was a function that was called, it prefixes an additional "+" so that I can follow recursion better. All in all, "sh -x" is a very versatile tool. As far as I undertood your commit message, your HACK would have done the first part: list what commands were executed. This is less than what "sh -x" does.
