Message-ID: <9105062033.AA29291@godot.RadOnc.UNC.EDU> Date: 6 May 91 20:33:02 GMT Article-I.D.: godot.9105062033.AA29291 Sender: daemon@tut.cis.ohio-state.edu Followup-To: gnu.emacs.help Organization: Gatewayed from the GNU Project mailing list help-gnu-emacs@prep.ai.mit.edu Lines: 18 On May 4 (and other days) I used emacs on a file called impix.cc. Sometime during the day, emacs encountered an "Illegal instruction." I've also been using g++ on this file. Today I see that there are more files, named similarly, in the same directory: -rw-r--r-- 1 tracton 1494 May 4 17:02 impix.cc -rw-r--r-- 1 tracton 36085 May 4 18:07 impix.cc.combine -rw-r--r-- 1 tracton 34203 May 4 18:07 impix.cc.cse -rw-r--r-- 1 tracton 42802 May 4 18:07 impix.cc.lreg Did emacs create these other files?
