System Trace is a tool for hackers.
Say you have some python application such as Reposurgeon that you need to understand better. You can attach strace to the <abbrev title="process id">pid</abbrev> of the running application to see the underlying system calls being made.
sudo strace -f -s128 -p$(ps -o lwp= -LC python2 | tail -1)
# -f follow child processes
