I am sure this can be improved, but a simple approach:
exname=: verb define
NB. Query stack, jump to next verb above 'exname' (ie down column 0)
>{.}.{."(1) 13!:13 ''
)
foo =: verb define
exname ''
)
NB. Stack suspension must be ENABLED for this to work ...
13!:0(0) NB. If NOT ENABLED ... no name returned
foo ''
13!:0(1) NB. But if ENABLED ... works OK
foo ''
foo

Subject: [Jprogramming] asking the current function's name
Is there a method to get or call the function's name of current
execution. This would be usefull developing logging & monitoring
methods. If the method had name "thisfunction" it could work like this:
foo=: 3 : 0
thisfunction ''
)
foo ''
foo
