set_debug

Synopsis:

set debug [<level>]

Description:

When turned on, this variable enables various degrees of debugging while the client is running. It is useful for seeing precisely where a particular alias or function is failing, what variables are being assigned what values, etc. There are three general classes of debug output, each assigned a unique number.

Bit Value Purpose
0 1 displays all commands executed, including aliases
1 2 displays all actual alias and variable substitutions
2 4 displays all function calls and their return values

Multiple classes may be displayed at once by adding the desired values together. A setting of 0 (zero) turns off debugging.

Examples:

To show all commands executed and alias expansion:

/set debug 3

To show everything:

/set debug 7

Other Notes:

This command can generate a lot of output, so setting HOLD_MODE on is recommended.
