The debuggers I've used typically use UP and DOWN to move up and down the
stack. Something indicates where in the stack you are (often numeric). The
source buffer changes to indicate where in the stack you are (if possible -
in compiled-only code, you don't have lots of display options
[bytecodes:-]).

Seems like we need a way to specify which thread(s) are being traced, to
start. And, it would be nice to be able to select from all threads
(however, how do I know which is which?) to break into while running.
Thanks and have fun! - Bob
