Most Lisp/Scheme implementations offer tracing. Amazingly, the SICP book even shows tracing as a means of analyzing whether a recursive function is tail-recursive.
What I'm curious about is the Lisp history of tracing. Does anyone know which implementations were the first to provide tracing functionality?
