gdb version: 3.2 machine type: sun-3/80 OS version: sun-os 4.0.3 Under both cc and gcc-1.35, the alloca that attempted to allocate the buffer for the string table failed, returning a bad non-NULL pointer (I only checked the return value on the gcc compiled version). I worked around the problem by #define-ing BROKEN_LARGE_ALLOCA when compiling this file. My string table size was 5108024. What determines the maximum allowable alloca size? Thanks for releasing the new version, I've been wanting command-line/history editing ever since I heard it was in the works. Don Bennett (408)433-3311 dpb@frame.com Frame Technology
