How would you go about debugging a Zsh script that is not behaving as expected?

To debug a Zsh script, start by enabling the shell’s debugging mode using “set -x” at the beginning of your script. This will print each command before it is executed, helping you trace any errors. If this doesn’t help, use the built-in “zshdb” debugger. Start zsh with “zsh -Z”, then load your script with “source”. Use commands like “step”, “next”, and “where” to navigate through your code. Remember to disable debugging once done by using “set +x”.
