tracing a ksh script within a ksh script
I normally trace a script with the ksh -x <script name> and redirect strderr to file. But if you have a script like the examble below......
vi hairy
bear=`grep bear animals`
if [ -n $bear ]
then
ksh more_animals
fi
If I ksh -x hairy it won't trace "more_animals" unless I put a -x in it. Is there a way to trace the original script and it will trace all other scripts within without actually have to add the -x? I have scripts invoking scripts that is invoking other scripts and it would be a pain to trace them all down to just add the -x.
Thanks in advance.

trace-cmd-stack
TRACE-CMD-STACK(1) TRACE-CMD-STACK(1)
NAME
trace-cmd-stack - read, enable or disable Ftrace Linux kernel stack tracing.
SYNOPSIS
trace-cmd stack
DESCRIPTION
The trace-cmd(1) stack enables the Ftrace stack tracer within the kernel. The stack tracer enables the function tracer and at each function
call within the kernel, the stack is checked. When a new maximum usage stack is discovered, it is recorded.
When no option is used, the current stack is displayed.
To enable the stack tracer, use the option --start, and to disable the stack tracer, use the option --stop. The output will be the maximum
stack found since the start was enabled.
Use --reset to reset the stack counter to zero.
SEE ALSO
