Hello,
This may be obvious to some, but after some Googling (apparently
with the wrong search terms, perhaps) and reading the gcc/gdb
manpages, I can't seem to find out how to get a program to produce
core dumps.
So I was wondering, is there some simple means to produce core
dumps or a set of conditions that I need to adhere to in order to get
the OS to core dump the progrdam???
Thanks,

Just kill it with the abort signal (SIGABRT) or some other signal that
makes the program dump core. Be aware though that if you are catching
or ignoring the signal, this won't work.

Which usually defaults to ctl-\ from the shell so it's easy to kill a
foreground program with bothering to find process id's etc.
OK, not what you actually wanted to do, but for completeness :-)
