NAME
       fcatch - print a stack back-trace of a program as it crashes

SYNOPSIS
       fcatch [options] {program arg ... }

DESCRIPTION
       fcatch generate stack backtraces from a running application as it crashes, or upon receiving a variety of signals.

   Stack Print Options
       -number-of-frames count
           Limit the back-trace to count frames. The default is to limit the back-trace to 10 frames. Specify 0 or "all" to
           print all frames.

       -lite
           Perform a light-weight stack backtrace containing only minimal information. Equivalent to -print -.

       -rich
           Perform a detailed stack back-trace that includes, where possible, inlined function calls, parameter names and
           values, and debug-names. Equivalent to -print inline,params,debug-names.

       -print print-option,...
           Specify the level of detail to include in a stack back-trace.  print-option can be any of:

           debug-names: use debug information, such as DWARF, to determine the name of functions

           paths: include the full path to source files and libraries

           inline: include in-line function in back-trace

           locals: to include local variables from each frame

           params: include the function parameters

           To negate a print-option prefix it with "-".

   Standard Frysk Options
       -exe
           The full path of the executable to read.

       -noexe
           Do not attempt to read the corresponding executable when loading a core file.

       -sysroot directory
           The system root directory under which all executables, libraries, and source are located.

       -debug class=level...
           Set internal debug-tracing of the specified Java class to level (level can be NONE, INFO, WARNING, FINE, and FINEST).
           If the level is absent, FINE is assumed; if the class is absent, the global level is set.

EXAMPLE
           fcatch 1234

           fcatch /usr/bin/foo
