Bash Shell Options

A POSIX compliant shell can be configured with the set and unset builtins. To inspect the enabled options, use the $SHELLOPTS shell variable.

Compatibility Levels

bash(1) 4 introduced compatibility levels, wherein the behavior of the shell are modified. 

shopt -e compat31

The modes available through the shopt builtin are:

  • compat31

  • compat32

  • compat40

  • compat41

  • compat42

  • compat43

  • compat44

A shell only has one compatibility level, so each mode is mutually exclusive.

From bash(1) 4.3+, use of the $BASH_COMPAT shell variable is preferred.

Extended Debugging Mode

extdebug
