Not sure what you mean. Unless you're using threads,
there is only one active subroutine at any one time.
But, here's an idea. You can use global variables to
track your progress. At the beginning of a subroutine,
set the value of a specific var to 1. At the end set
to 0. It's not pretty, but should be good 99% of the
time.
