79b363
\f3gstack\f1 attaches to the active process named by the \f3pid\f1 on
79b363
the command line, and prints out an execution stack trace.  If ELF
79b363
symbols exist in the binary (usually the case unless you have run
79b363
strip(1)), then symbolic addresses are printed as well.

If the process is part of a thread group, then \f3gstack\f1 will print
79b363
out a stack trace for each of the threads in the group.
