      So I'm having another attempt at Dolphin controller mapping as emulationstation is being setup, similar to pisnes and those other antiquated emulators.

      Is there an easy way to test my script line by line so I can tell where the failure? as it's generating the temp file but it's not populating the keys or some reason I can't figure out

        You can copy the main inputconfiguration.sh config script and then modify the path where the configuration scripts are, pointing to your own script folder (i.e. the Dolphin mapping script). You can run the script manually so you don't have to go through EmulationStation each time you want to run your mapping script.

        To get more details when running a script, use either bash -x <scriptname> to see a step-by-step execution trace or modify the script header (1st line) to use bash -x for execution
