Um, to get a plain english, you run an operating system that'll dump a core ;)
A stackdump is nothing more than addresses in a lot of cases, and that's rather worthless (for MOST people) when debugging.... If you think your punt command is at fault, perhaps you should walk over it step by step making sure everything makes sense, and then, and only then, if it's still crashing, send a copy to us so we could see if that is what's at fault or not.... Without some code, a stackdump is rather pointless, but A+ for effort ;) Icechild Coder of Arthanox *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 12/2/2001 at 12:29 PM Stainless wrote: >How in the heck do you get a plain english version of a stackdump that >occurs when the mud crashes?
