I have an mtxrun on a .tex file that has problems I need to debug.
The .tex file handles well, but whenMETAPOST has a go, it crashes. But after the run, I cannot inspect what source was fed to METAPOST. Can I inspect that (outside of what the log tells me)?
In this case, I know METAPOST is fed:
picture pic; x:=80.000; y:=200.000; w:=133.000; h:=53.000;pic := ApplicationComponentLogo( w, h, typeString) shifted (x, -y); draw pic;
but the log says this is wrong:
metapost log > >> unknown picture pic
metapost log > >> ApplicationComponentLogo
metapost log > ! Equation cannot be performed (unknown picture=numeric).
metapost log > <to be read again>
metapost log > (
metapost log > <*> ... h:=53.000;pic := ApplicationComponentLogo(
metapost log > w, h, typeString) shifted...
SoI need to inspect what is fed to METAPOST to see why METAPOST thinks pic or ApplicationComponentLogo have not been defined.

you can enable trackers, like
metapost.lua
metapost.runs
metapost.textexts
metapost.scripts
metapost.graphics
metapost.tracingall
metapost.terminal
