traceon, traceoff 

The traceon and traceoff routines are used to enable or disable tracing.

Syntax 

     #include <curses.h>

     traceoff();
     traceon();

Return Values 

OK                    Successful completion.

ERR                   An error occurred.

Description 

The traceon() and traceoff() routines turn on or turn off tracing,
respectively.  Since the volume of output produced by these routines can
be very large, limit the area traced at a given time.

The output generated by these routines is stored in a file called
trace.out.  The information provided by the trace.out file is the name of
the function and its parameters when entered and the function name and
its return value upon exit.
