+pstack (print stack traces of running processes)
+
+Outputs a backtrace for every thread in each requested PID.
+Frame order within threads can be reversed.
+
+This version of pstack is a bin/sh expect script which runs gdb. As
+such, it should run on any platform which has expect and gdb installed.
+To have expect on a Slackware system, you need to have installed the
+tcl group (even if you are a Perl fanatic ;)
