This window allows you to see the stack when an error occurs. Two
sub-windows compose it.
<UL>
<LI> the topmost window (labeled <strong>Stack content</strong>)
shows the contents of the stack when the error occurred. Each line
contains the parameters passed to an invocation of the <TT>eval</TT>
procedure (last call to eval is on the first line).
<BR>
This window is also made of two sub-windows.
<UL>
<LI> On the left side is the environment in which the expression
must be evaluated. Click on an item of this list to view
the bindings defined in this environment.
<LI> On the right side, there is the expression to evaluate. Clicking on
an item of this list sets the <em>Listener</em>
default environment to the environment of this expression.
</UL>
<LI> the bottom window (labeled <strong>Listener</strong>) allows you to
interact with the <EM>STk</EM> interpreter. The listener reads an
expression in this window, evaluates it (in the environment previously
selected in the above <EM>Stack window</EM>) and prints its result in
this window.
</UL>
