truss: Start tracing a program by executing it, showing arguments and environment variables.
$ truss -a -e ${program}
try on your machine
The command "truss -a -e ${program}" is using the "truss" utility in Unix-like operating systems, which is used for tracing and debugging system calls and signals made by a program.
Here's a breakdown of the command and its options:
- "truss": This is the command itself. It is used to trace a program's system calls and signals.
- "-a": This option specifies that truss should trace all system calls made by the program. Without this option, truss only traces a subset of system calls.
- "-e ${program}": This option specifies the program that you want to trace. The ${program} is actually a placeholder for the actual program's name or path. You need to replace it with the name or path of the program you want to trace.
Overall, this command will run the specified program (${program}) while tracing all of its system calls.
