Trace is the default method of printing haxe expressions to the screen. | |
Different targets will have different methods of accomplishing this. | |
E.g., java, c++, c#, etc. will print to std out. | |
Javascript will print to console.log. All traces come with a default newline. | |
Finally, It's possible to prevent traces from showing by using the | |
"--no-traces" argument on the compiler. | |
