[comp.sys.mac.programmer] stack sniffer

bruner@sp15.csrd.uiuc.edu (John Bruner) (03/05/91)

What is the procedure for turning off the stack sniffer?  My search
of the technotes and *Inside Macintosh* turned up a description of
the sniffer but no details about how to disable it.  Thanks.

As I remember, all you have to do is set the global "StkLowPt" to 0.
You still have to worry about QuickDraw stomping on anything
between the current top of stack and the end of the heap,
though...
