No, I meant any level. Using the example from before:

IDL> deepstop, 1
% Stop encountered: DEEPSTOP 2 /dev/tty
IDL> print, routine_names('deus_ex_machina', 1, store=1)
% ROUTINE_NAMES: Variable is undefined: deus_ex_machina.
% Execution halted at: DEEPSTOP 2 /dev/tty
% DEEPSTOP 3 /dev/tty
% $MAIN$

Am I doing something wrong here?

Craig
