When trying a Pascal compilation on a hp9000s800 which is low on swap space, I get this: **** EXTRA DATA SEGMENT ERROR **** UNKNOWN XDATA SEGMENT: XDATA SEGMENT ID 0 CURRENT LENGTH 0 ALLOCATED LENGTH 0 MAXIMUM LENGTH 0 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !! HP PASCAL/UX Internal Error 280:35: 1 !! !! at or near Statement # 0 !! !! please submit a service request to HP !! !! for HP PASCAL/UX ver. HP92431A.04.03 !! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ( 0) 0x00039a3c ( 1) 0x000c6fdc ( 2) 0x000b24ec ( 3) 0x000d11a4 Very funny... I had guessed that the Pascal compiler was written by HP3000 people as it has ERROR MESSAGES IN ALL CAPS. This `extra data segment' message gives it away... -- Tor Lillqvist Technical Research Centre of Finland, Computing Services (VTT/ATK) tml@hemuli.atk.vtt.fi [130.188.52.2]

We'll have to change the message to "bus error, core dumped". ------------------------------------------------------------- Chip Chapin -- HP Computer Language Lab uucp: ... {allegra,decvax,ihnp4,ucbvax} !hplabs!hpda!chip or ... chip%hpda@hplabs.hp.com HPDesk: chip (hpda) /HPUNIX/UX USMail: 47LZ; 19420 Homestead Ave; Cupertino, CA 95014 Phone: 408/447-5735 HPTelnet: 1-447-5735 -------------------------------------------------------------

Of course, in the future if I have only one copy of a core dump I'll save it somewhere else before running xdb. Could you change the error mesages from xdb so it doesn't say xdb: core dumped - something in upper case, but without the core dump part would be good ( xdb is probably written in the C Computer Language so this may not be in your bailiwick ) Mike Corrigan mcorrigan@ucsd.edu

Or maybe just "not a typwriter." Then, everyone will *know* it's a
UN*X program:-)
