Is there something I am mis-understanding about $BASH_COMMAND? The manpage says:
BASH_COMMAND
The command currently being executed or about to be executed,
unless the shell is executing a command as the result of a trap,
in which case it is the command executing at the time of the
trap.
However:
$ trap 'echo $BASH_COMMAND' ERR
$ false
echo $BASH_COMMAND
So, in the trap, $BASH_COMMAND seems to contain the line command being
executed in the trap. I would have expected to see:
$ trap 'echo $BASH_COMMAND' ERR
$ false
false
given the explanation in the manpage.
I must be misunderstanding something.
