FUNCTION::THREADIND(3stUtility functions for usingFUNCTION::THREADIND(3stap)

NAME
       function::threadindentdepth - returns the nested-depth of the current
       task

SYNOPSIS
           threadindentdepth:long(delta:long)

ARGUMENTS
       delta
           the amount of depth added/removed for each call

DESCRIPTION
       This function returns an integer equal to the nested function-call
       depth starting from the outermost initial level. This function is
       useful for saving space (consumed by whitespace) in traces with long
       nested function calls. Use this function in a similar fashion to
       threadindent, i.e., in call-probe, use threadindentdepth(1) and in
       return-probe, use threadindentdepth(-1)
