When your program has stopped, the first thing you need to know is
where it stopped and how it got there. All GDB commands apply here
See info-file ` gdb.info', Gdb. These commands let you inspect and browse
the C stack. In addition you may inspect the stack restricted to Bigloo
stack frames.<br/><br/><dl class="description" id='description1325'
