What were you trying to do?
I sent myself a message with the command:
zwrite -i "@right(confuse)" jefft
and my zwgc went away. I did a /usr/etc/zwgc -nofork &
and repeated the zwrite and got a Segmentation violation.
It died on the ping and not the message.
What's wrong:
I believe it's the line:
print "@large("+upcase($sender)+" "+$sort+" "+$type+")"
line 58 in the file /mit/jefft/.crash.zwgc.desc, a copy of the file
that caused the crash.
sort is a copy of $instance and type is blank.
What should have happened:
Not sure. I was just messing around.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
