Many of the programs I run require large stack sizes. However, I like keeping the stack size in my shells set low (like 4K). To run programs needing large stacks, I normally setup a script that raises the stack size, starts the program, and then lowers the stack size again. Unfortunately, this is getting out of hand.. too many programs require large stack sizes and I find I'm writing too many scripts. What does everybody else do? -Norm -- // Norman Heu \X/ nheu@heuvax.wimsey.bc.ca -or- uunet!heuvax.wimsey.bc.ca!nheu
