This may sound like a bizzare request, but it is for real:
I need to get hold of the "dialog box with a bomb in it" which shows up
when an application goes south. Ideally this would be in a form which would
be usable with MacPaint - but even just being able to print the thing on my
imagewriter would be very helpful.
I am a new SE user, and don't know much(anything) yet about the SE's insides.

There was a demo-type program posted a long while back that when run, would (kiddingly) put up a bomb box and wait for you to hit reset; then exit to the finder. While its up, standard command shift keys should work to dump it into a MacPaint. I'll rumage through my archives and see if I can find it again, but if someone definitely has a handle on this toy, I suggest they drop you a line. -- "Plan for the future because that's where you Howard C.
