Debugging

Shell script debugging in Linux uses tools like bash's -x option for execution traces, trap, set commands, and external tools like shellcheck. Use #!/bin/bash -x in scripts or bash -x script.sh from command line for tracing. These debugging options help detect, trace, and fix errors to make scripts more efficient and error-proof.
