we all know that the reload logs are very often not very helpfull, when you try to fix a reload error (e.g. applymap error not telling you which applymap failed).
To improve this a little bit I would like to ask for an automatic trace whenever a new section is processed. The reload log could look like this:
=====MAIN=====
script log
reload * resident
etc etc
===== Section 2 ====
left Join etc etc
==== Section 3 ====
etc
Not sure if others aggree with this idea, but for me personally this would improve QOL quite much.
@AlexOmetis - I know your post. I commented it May last year. - It is very sad that not even the simple improvents (e.g. applymap error) were even put on the roadmap yet. 😕
@philipdoyne Thx for the tip. But doing it manually I prefer it that way:
let vTrace = 'Trace ======$1======';
$(vTrace(Section1));
$(vTrace(Section2));
$(vTrace(etc));
Or if you need it to trace a complex script, I use a Sub instead, because then I am able to not only trace the title but although measure the runtime of each section and let the scrept tell me something like this:
