Hello,

I've noticed that there are instances where it is very easy to pinpoint the
source of a program abend:

HPDEBUG Intrinsic at: 147.00282304 cob_trap.print_message+$5ec
$$$$ Trap occurred at: _start+$a0, at Stmt    #59
     PC=292.000057d8 _start+$a0
* 0) SP=41842330 RP=292.00000000
     (end of NM stack)
$$$$ The variable 6 >   5 (limit)
============================================================

In the above example, the abend occurred at Statement #59.  Recompiling the
program yields this very clearly:

 00059 EY010322 028008    move 7 to x(y)

However, when faced with an HPDEBUG message like the one below, how do I
read the Trap message to pinpoint the location of the error?

HPDEBUG Intrinsic at: 104.0026d304 cob_trap.print_message+$5ec
$$$$ Trap occurred at: screen$008$+$3ed4, at ????
     PC=3bb.0006530c screen$008$+$3ed4
* 0) SP=418529f0 RP=3bb.00000000
     (end of NM stack)
$$$$ The variable 10 >   9 (limit)
