As written above, in REXX you have the command TRACE and the function TRACE()
However, I'm rather using simply write some SAYs on places where I want see program behavior - something like this:

/* 
dbg_info = 1 'View debug infos'
         = 0 'Debug infos off' 
*/
dbg_info = 1
...
...
if dbg_info then do
  say '---- dbg info ---'
  say 'a =' a 
  say 'b =' b
  say '-----------------'
end
...
