NAME

       Devel::Trace - Print out each line before it is executed (like "sh -x")

SYNOPSIS

	 perl -d:Trace program

DESCRIPTION

       If you run your program with "perl -d:Trace program", this module will print a message to standard error just before each line is executed.
       For example, if your program looks like this:

	       #!/usr/bin/perl

	       print "Statement 1 at line 4
";
	       print "Statement 2 at line 5
";
	       print "Call to sub x returns ", &x(), " at line 6.
";

	       exit 0;

	       sub x {
		 print "In sub x at line 12.
";
		 return 13;
	       }

       Then  the "Trace" output will look like this:

	       >> ./test:4: print "Statement 1 at line 4
";
	       >> ./test:5: print "Statement 2 at line 5
";
	       >> ./test:6: print "Call to sub x returns ", &x(), " at line 6.
";
	       >> ./test:12:   print "In sub x at line 12.
";
	       >> ./test:13:   return 13;
	       >> ./test:8: exit 0;

       This is something like the shell's "-x" option.

DETAILS

       Inside your program, you can enable and disable tracing by doing

	   $Devel::Trace::TRACE = 1;   # Enable
	   $Devel::Trace::TRACE = 0;   # Disable

       or

	   Devel::Trace::trace('on');  # Enable
	   Devel::Trace::trace('off'); # Disable

       "Devel::Trace" exports the "trace" function if you ask it to:

	   import Devel::Trace 'trace';

       Then if you want you just say

	   trace 'on';		       # Enable
	   trace 'off'; 	       # Disable

TODO

       o   You should be able to  send the trace output to the filehandle of your choice.

       o   You should be able to specify the format of the output.

       o   You should be able to get the output into a string.

       We'll see.
