It would be nice to have Line Numbers in the back trace output on errors.

I think will end up to creating a SyxError object or such to be passed to all
functions, like GError of glib.
It must be thought the right way.

Panda Smalltalk has line numbers for errors, hopefully this will be a feature 
of syx

Yes it will be supported of course. We need a good error reporting before the 
system
has been initialized (C side) and better error reporting on exceptions 
(Smalltalk side).
There are two kinds of reports, one referring to the file and one referring to 
the
method and the line of the method.
I think we cannot support the file stuff in the Smalltalk side because there's 
no
much meaning in that. Instead, for the C-side, both will be supported.
