~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Annotation scripts and config files
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Run the "env" command to record the environment:

env | sort > stagename.log

In a config file:

.megatest.config, runconfigs.config and testconfig
...................
#{shell env | sort > stagename.log}

# or

[system env | sort > stagename.log}
...................

In scripts just insert the command:


.myscript.sh
..............................
env > somefile.log







..............................

Start an xterm to examine the environment, run scripts etc:

In a config file:

.megatest.config, runconfigs.config and testconfig files
..............................
#{shell xterm}  (this blocks)

or

#{shell xterm &} (this is non-blocking)
..............................

Similarly in a script just call the xterm.

Misc Other Debugging Hints
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Annotating scripts and config files
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Run the "env" command to record the environment:

env | sort > stagename.log

In a config file:

.megatest.config, runconfigs.config and testconfig
...................
#{shell env | sort > stagename.log}

# or

[system env | sort > stagename.log}
...................

In scripts just insert the commands, this example helps you identify
if "some commands ..." changed any environment variables.:

.myscript.sh
..............................
env > somefile-before.log
some commands ...
env > somefile-after.log
..............................

.Use meld to examine the differences
..............................
meld somefile-before.log somefile-after.log
..............................

Start an xterm to examine the environment, run scripts etc:

In a config file:

.megatest.config, runconfigs.config and testconfig files
..............................
#{shell xterm}  (this blocks)




..............................

Similarly in a script just call the xterm.
