You can set the ENV variable to a file that has "set -x" in it. Like this:
Code:
$ cat one
#! /usr/bin/ksh

./two
./three
exit 0
$ cat two
#! /usr/bin/ksh
echo in two
exit 0
$ cat three
#! /usr/bin/ksh
echo in three
./four
exit 0
$ cat four
#! /usr/bin/ksh
echo I am number 4
exit 0
$
$
$
$
$ ./one
in two
in three
I am number 4
$
$
$
$ cat debug
set -x
$ export ENV=debug
$
$ ./one
+ ./two
+ echo in two
in two
+ exit 0
+ ./three
+ echo in three
in three
+ ./four
+ echo I am number 4
I am number 4
+ exit 0
+ exit 0
+ exit 0
$
