NODE-BACKTRACE
==============

Prints a stack trace on SIGABRT.  What sets it apart from other stack
trace tools is that it knows how to decode V8 JS frames.

This tool is probably only useful for node.js add-on and core
developers.


USAGE
=====

The only requirement is that you load the module, i.e.:

    require('backtrace');
    process.abort();  // Trigger the SIGABRT handler.


API
===

backtrace.backtrace()  -  Prints a backtrace to stderr.


KNOWN BUGS
==========

* Only supports i386 and x86_64 (ia32 and x64).
* Only tested on Linux and OS X.
