| I am wondering if someone knows of a debugging-type tool where one can run a
| program and can then periodically (at my choice) see where the program
| currently is, i.e., what procedure is currently executing? The important
| thing is to be able to choose when to see the execution trace at will,
| instead of tracing every procedure call.
That facility is available in PL/I. It's part of the language.
You can then either
(a) resume execution as if nothing had happened, or
(b) print values of variables,
and other things.
