The following are examples of the results of running the rb_calls.d script.

This script traces activity from all Ruby programs on the system that are
running with Ruby provider support. In this example we see it running while
the Code/Ruby/func_abc.rb script is run.

# rb_calls.d

 func_abc.rb              method     Object::func_a                        1
 func_abc.rb              method     Object::func_b                        1
 func_abc.rb              method     Object::func_c                        1
 .                        obj-new    Object                                3
 func_abc.rb              method     IO::write                             3
 func_abc.rb              method     Module::method_added                  3
 func_abc.rb              method     Object::print                         3
 func_abc.rb              method     Object::sleep                         3

We can see that the file func_abc.rb called each of the user-defined functions
included in the script; func_a, func_b, and func_c.  It also called the print
object and sleep amongst other things.  Interspersed in the output are calls
to new objects that are not tied to the program func_abc.rb.  They are called
from the Ruby engine for some other reason.
