I was looking at Parrot Forth tonight and was extremely confused for
the longest time because no prompt was getting printed. I figured I
just didn't know how to use the thing. But that's not the case.
Somewhere, the prompt for the interpreter ("> ") started getting
buffered. It's not printing beca

When I changed this line:
push @stack_trace, [ (caller($i))[0 .. 3] ] while caller(++$i);
to this (taken straight from Devel::StackTrace):
while ( do { package DB; @DB::args = (); @c = caller($i++) } ) {
push @stack_trace, [ @c[0 .. 3] ];
}

I am seeing some weird behavior where Devel::Cover seems to be
removing/consuming information I am trying to extract with caller(). I
have managed to isolate the behavior in a small script, which is
included below.
Anyone else seen this problem before? Am I doing something wrong? Or is

thanks leo -- it worked! i'm still going to keep my wrapper lib around
though, just in case there are platforms where this dlfunc trick doesn't
work. but that can easily be detected during configuration.

- Creating a continuation and returning it to the caller of a subroutine

continuation.

STRING *foo = CONST_STRING(interpreter, "foobar");
One small warning: the CONST_STRING should always be on its own line and
not in a multiline C statement. Preprocessors could get confused about
the line number, which is used internally in the CONST_STRING macro.

Yep. The Plan was to do a release in June. Pie-thon did interfer.
Since the usual purpose of a point release is to have
features finished and bugs squashed, it may be a good
time for another release.
I'd say in a month or so.

That makes the interpreter unbearable slow and non-competitive. That's
the reason for my alternate calling scheme proposal.
