Tracing Function and Procedure Calls 

When a program contains several functions or procedure calls, you might
need to know the sequence of calls that led to the current point of
suspension.  Displaying this sequence is called "viewing the stack".  To
view the stack, enter the t (trace) command:

     >t
      0 f2 (i = 3)    [t.c: 17]
      1 f1 (i = 2)    [t.c: 11]
      2 main ()    [t.c: 5]

The debugger lists the current (depth 0) procedure first.
