TB (TRACEBACK) -- Print traceback after a fault.
usage: TB
FORMAT
TB
TB prints a traceback after a fault. The traceback lists the
names of the routines leading from the fault back to the main
program, and includes the line number at which each routine was
called. Up to 32 levels of calls can appear. If the sequence
exceeds 32 calls, the first 16 and last 16 are shown in the
traceback.
TB requires no arguments or options.
** NOTE **
There is a synonymous DM command: TB -- To bottom of window. Type
HELP TB_DM for details about that command.
EXAMPLE
The traceback from a floating-point error
might resemble the following:
$ TB
overflow in multiply (from library/floating point)
In routine "EXTRAPOLATE" line 25
Called from "REFLECTION" line 192
Called from "$MAIN" line 19
$
In this example, an overflow error occurred in a
floating-point multiplication at line 25 of the
routine named EXTRAPOLATE. The routine EXTRAPOLATE
was called at line 192 of the routine REFLECTION, which
in turn was called at line 19 of the main program.
