Hi,
in R-3.1.0 (Linux), traceback() does not show the source file line
number for the truncated calls, when limiting the number of lines
output for each call with argument max.lines. See sample code, output
and session info below (in particular, output for call number 5).
I guess this is not intended.
Thank you.
Bests,
Renaud
