Good afternoon Dantin, Seeing as noone has yet offered a valid response to your question, I figure i will give it a go. :) First: "slow_olc_cmds :", having no idea of your editor of choice for changing code i will ask if you have a cygwin version of "grep", if not do a windows version of search for the above mentioned line. This is what appeared in your logfile, correct? It would then make sense to find where in the code that message is generated. Once you have found that block of code use your newfound knowledge along with the information of what you were doing when it crashed, you mentioned that you were in "aedit" when you typed a command and that the resulting entry in the logfile was the outcome. Armed with that info you can then use logic to read through your code and find what went wrong. Some people have mentioned trying to get your ROM into a *nix box. Some have also mentioned using "printf" statements. Both are valid solutions to finding code errors, (*nix for the gdb support, and printf as a poormans gdb) if you are stuck in a windows environment, the way to go would be the printf method, sure it takes a while but it will help you become more familiar with your code (actually reading it when you insert the statements). the second method mentioned was putting oyur code on a *nix box. For your purposes of coding and learning rom this would be ideal. a box that can run linux could be as simple as an old pentium or a 486! if you want you could even use a multi-boot box... *nix on one partition and windows on another. LAST on the list would be trying to use GDB in Cygwin, windows uses a different stack structure, and as such when a program that is run in a emulator window crashes it contains almost no usefull info. I hope that above helps in some way. /-------------------------------------------------------------\ | Steve Boleware | Beginning Coder | | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Student of Life | | ICQ: 11120901 | | \-------------------------------------------------------------/
