Greetings,
I recently found this Linux program called strace. Basically it monitors the OS API calls used by a particular application and shows them (in C format). It's great for debugging or just seeing what's going on in a program. It can attach to a running program as well.
I found great value in attaching an strace to a long-running rm command because hours of a blinking cursor will freak me out.
It's good stuff.
