Here are a couple related verbs which may be useful when dealing with this
sort of stuff:
which - return script which defined name
scrtree - return script calling tree
junpath - "undo" jpath by (replace prefixes with ~codes)
/K
NB./ which - return script which defined name in y
NB./ [x] - if _ (default), just return script defining name
NB./ else, invoke scrtree to return script call tree (with x as left
arg)
NB./ y - name
NB./ (boxed y indicates return full pathnames)

NB./ scrtree - return script calling tree
NB./ Return list of loaded scripts with indentation to show call
