Include_string third argument fname

General Usage
1

Hi,

What is the meaning / use of the third argument fname in include_string?
I saw it used this way in IJulia:

include_string(Main, code, "In[$n]")

where n is a number (say 1), In is a mapping of Int to String, which stores code string. So if n=1, In[1] contains code.
I tried the following in the REPL

include_string(Main, "a=1; a+a", "s")

which works at intended, but I do not get the purpose of the third argument.

Thanks,
Bruno

and fname = filename.

So it seems that fname argument only serves as an identifier of the code string when an exception is raised.
Thank you!
