zshdb

Key Features

* The purpose of a debugger such as the Z-Shell debugger is to allow you to see what is going on “inside” a zsh script while it executes. The Z-Shell debugger can do four main kinds of things (plus other things in support of these) to help you catch bugs in the act: * Start your script, specifying anything that might affect its behavior. * Make your script stop on specified conditions. * Examine what has happened, when your script has stopped. * Change things in your script, so you can experiment with correcting the effects of one bug and go on to learn about another. Although you can use the Z-Shell debugger to debug scripts written in Z-Shell it can also be used just as a front-end for learning more about programming in Z-Shell * As an additional aid, the debugger can be used within the context of an existing script with its functions and variables that have already been initialized; fragments of the existing can be experimented with by entering them inside the debugger. * gdb syntax * Source-code syntax colorization via pygments * Command completion * Terminal handling
