I knew that debugging a core dump would be the optimal way to report,
but my unix and DOS binaries have been stripped and DOS exits without
leaving an actual core file. The next time I build a unix binary, I'll
try to build with -g and leave it unstripped until I can reproduce the
problem.
I've never used gdb. Can anyone tell me briefly what to do with it on
the core file to give information worth posting to the list. I know
little about programming.
