Anybody know where to find what the acceptable arguments to --trace
on the command line are, and what each means?

So far, I've tried:

--trace                 Lots of output
--trace=0               No output
--trace=1               Looks maybe the same as --trace with no argument
--trace=2               No output
--trace=3               A whaling big lot of very interesting output

Slightly better descriptions of these would be nice. :-)

Cogit>>sendTrace: aBooleanOrInteger

<doNotGenerate> "traceFlags is a set of flags. 1 => print trace (if something below is selected) 2 => trace sends 4 => trace block activations 8 => trace interpreter primitives 16 => trace events (context switches, GCs, etc) 32 => trace stack overflow 64 => send breakpoint on implicit receiver (Newspeak VM only)" traceFlags := aBooleanOrInteger isInteger ifTrue: [aBooleanOrInteger] ifFalse: [aBooleanOrInteger ifTrue: [6] ifFalse: [0]] --

Thanks Eliot, that helps a lot!
