I always seem to get Fatal error (6), and a core is dumped. When I do an adb on the core file, I get the message SIGIOT 6: abort. I tried xemacs (x window version) with sticky bit on, setuid on, and all possible permutations, including with 0755 protection mode, and I always get this error message. Is there any thing I am missing? Thanks in advance for your help. Binod Taterway LUBKT@vax1.CC.Lehigh.EDU User Consultant LUBKT@spectrum.CC.Lehigh.EDU Lehigh University, Beth, PA. (215) 758-3984.
