My intention was to say a message like the following :

In line < number > in routine < name > the error < name of error > has
occurred
called from line < number >  of routine < name > ,
.
.
.
called from line < number >  of routine < name > .

where lines

"called from line < number >  of routine < name >"

may be in any convenient format ( not in hexadecimal addresses ) .


I am not seeing any such messages when an error occurs .

In "Witness" mode , a list is displayed by hexadecimal addresses .

If you mean this feature , I am not intending this feature .


My intention was to mean in "Default" mode , not in "Debug" mode , to
generate such messages
irrespective of debug mode is specified or not .


Thank you very much .
