In UNIX I often use RC> strace to determine what programs do so I can tell what RC> is going wrong when they just give strange error messages and exit... Also, I find it sometimes helpful to know how Unix programs do certain things when I don't know myself. eg "strace ls" shows exactly how the ls command (under Linux) gets a list of available files, using readdir. BTW, you might want to look at the following program, quoted from XFree86/OS2 documentation: "You can use the EWS utility EXEMAP.EXE to check if these DLLs are linked in." While this isn't exactly what you want, it does list all imported system calls used by a program...
