I'm running ez 7.0, ATK 15.0 (Patch level 6) on a Sparc 1, SunOS 4.0.3c. I have ispell installed (and I can invoke it from the same command line I invoke ez), but ez core dumps when I select check spelling from the command line. I'm not sure whether this is a bug or a configuration problem, because I found earlier this year that Patch level 5 core dumped when it couldn't find ispell. Has anyone else had this problem? More importantly, has anyone else solved this problem? Thanks, Jon ----------------------------------------------------------------- From the Oracle*Desk of: "Paradise is exactly like Jonathan Levine where you are right now, Oracle*Mail Development only much, much better."

However when I compiled that object with debugging in an attempt to find out what the problem was, the problem went away. I therefore installed the object compiled with debugging in it and have since forgotten about it. - grahamd

On Suns, -O is notorious for causing core dumps...
