Uh, yes, I do mean in my NFS locker.  /mit/simsong/core.

What I was doing was this:

^X( M-< query-replace ^M with "" ! M-< ^X)
name-last-kbd-macro erase-hat-ms
local-set-key M-O erase-hat-ms

^X( ^S( ^@ ^S) ^W ^N ^A ^X)
name-last-kbd-macro erase-between-parens
local-set-key M-P erase-between-parens

Then I did a lot of M-P's in a row.  At some point, it dumped core,
with a BPT error.  The core is in /mit/simsong/core.

Oh, I was running on an RT at the time.

	   I've been able to consistently get emacs to dump core by doing
	   keyboard macros and setting them to special keys.  The core
	
	Can you be more specific?
	
	   file is in /u/simsong/core
	   --simson
	
	/u/simsong?  On what machine?  Do you mean your NFS locker?
