    I wanted to thank everyone who offered suggestions. Because of them I was
    able to see what I needed to.

    So, quick summary:

    I need to parse through a script to get the exact syntax of a command it is
    running. Unfortunately the script is written with functions.

    ksh -vx will give me the output processing of the scripts, but doesn't give
    the output processing of the functions inside the script. Does anyone know a
    way to tell it to give that information to me as well.

    Solutions:

    I can place a "set -vx" internal to the functions. This approach worked
    wonderfully!
    Someone also suggested there is a version of ksh made for debugging that you
    can possibility get from the OS vendors.

    Thanks again for everyones help!
    Chris
