   Hello!

   When a djgpp program crashes, it prints a nice stack trace which is very handy 
   for debugging. Is there anyway to generate this without actually crashing, ie: 
   if you want to find out how a particular procedure got called then insert a 
   line that generates the stacktrace? Or is this a CWSDPMI thing?

   I would be very grateful if anyone who knows the answer could e-mail me.

Yes.  Run your program in the debugger, GDB or RHIDE's new debugger will do.  The 
command 'where' will print a stack trace so put a breakpoint on the function you 
want a path trace to and when the program stops enter the 'where' command.
