No it is not something else. Any of the "set" options are options that |
| 9 |
can be passed to the shell upon invocation. This is why when you type |
| 10 |
bash --help, it says to execute the following "Type `bash -c "help set"' |
| 11 |
for more information about shell options." What I showed you is where |
| 12 |
the -x option is documented in the man page. |

Now, in my opinion, the bash man page is as clear as mud to someone that |
| 15 |
hasn't been around Unix/Linux for awhile. That however is a different |
| 16 |
issue. |
