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 homonymous DM command: TB -- To bottom of window. Type
HELP TB_DM for details about that command.
EXAMPLES
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.
