Following some random directions on the Internet, trying to debug my shell problem (I use zsh), I ran set -x . Thanks to this, I understood my problem. However, I am now in an uncomfortable position, not knowing how to cancel this debugging, I really donβt even understand what I did, first of all, you see.
I also realized that I could just do zsh and get a new shell. The obvious unset -x does not work. I would like to know the right way. Thanks!
Update:
Found this unix & linux stack exchange post about what -x does. Still don't know how to disable it.
