I am attempting to write my first FBSD script.  My shell is tcsh but I'm
writing the script to use the standard /bin/sh (this is the way I should do
it, right?).  Anyway, I have written many scripts using OpenVMS on VAXs and
Alphas.  In that OS, there's a command called "set verify" that prints each
line of the script as it executes.  This way I can see what symbol
substitution has taken place and exactly at what line the error(s) occurred.
Is there something similar to this for Unix scripts?

Thanks,

Drew
