This would require using a debugger such as gdb or inserting debugging
print statements into the source code of the program.

Because info uses the terminal for display, it is usually best to debug it
from a separate terminal window.  I use a bash function for this:

function attach () {
        gdb $1 `pgrep $1`
}

and run "attach ginfo" to attach to a running ginfo instance.

This is harder than it used to be on many GNU/Linux distributions.
Here's a Stack Exchange post I found about it:

I don't know how this works with MinGW or MSYS though -- it's probably
irrelevant.
