Something I have used (my Amiga compiler calls it a coverage utility)
is a program/compiler option/linked library that outputs a listing of
what lines in a program were used in a particular run, what lines
were not, and what the percentage was.


Does anyone know how to do this in C and/or (preferrably) Perl under
Unix (specifically SunOS/Solaris)?


Thanks.
