How does one suppress generation of a corefile (other than writing perfect
programs of course) ??????    I usually do not use my corefile and I would
like to limit the size of the file to 0 or not generate it at all.
On the SUNs, this can be done including the line
"limit coredumpsize 0",
However on the HP's I am unable to find an equivalent.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
