Can you get a 'back trace / stack trace' of callers?

[robzed]

I'd like a way of printing the words that called this word.
I assume, for the most part, these are on the return stack (assuming no >R and do-loop control)??
Is this possible in pForth?

I guess I could build one myself if I had access to the return stack and some way of finding the address occupied by words.

I am not at my computer right now. But try UNRAVEL

Hmmm .... I don't see that or anything similar?

We had it in JForth and HForth. But it does not seem to be in pForth!
I found an implementation in HMSL that actually seems to work in pForth.

I created #193 to track this.

I've commented on that ticket.
