Jim> XEmacs 21.4.9 "Informed Management" configured for `powerpc-apple-darwin6.5'. (1) What's your stack size? (This doesn't look like a regexp crash, but on the Mac it pays to ask.) You will get screwed by the regexp code unless it's at least 8MB. I've seen examples that required 24MB (on a Pentium box, dunno if that makes a difference). Alternatively, try cd src rm regex.o make CFLAGS=-DREGEX_MALLOC regex.o cd .. make (2) A number of crashes were fixed between 21.4.9 and 21.4.12, don't know if any of those would apply here. If you decide to upgrade, don't forget the add the --pdump flag to configure (special case for 21.4.12, typo in a patch disabled automatically addition; this is fixed for 21.4.13, due RSN). I think there was a window config problem fixed. Could be related since you apparently crashed while scrolling. -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
