I've been using an environment variable for that for ages. Some of the command lines are too simple (like a 'cp' or 'mv') and get their '@'-sign directly; compiler and linker commands get their $(MY_AT) at the position where the @-sign should be. Normally I have an "export MY_AT=@" (using bash) in my profile, but if I set it to the empty string, all relevant commands are echoed.
