Hello,

The help for dbtype states:

"When called with no arguments in debugging mode, display the script
file currently being debugged."

 From this I expected that dbtype would print the function currently
stopped in the stack. So for instance, if I'm stopped in a function foo
which is called by a function bar, and I navigate up to bar by doing
dbup, I would have expected that dbtype would now print out bar.
However, as far as I can tell, it still prints out foo no matter where I
navigate too.

Is this the expected behaviour of dbtype, or a bug?

Sounds like a bug to me but I don't know what Matlab does.
