WHAT'S WRONG
I deiconifyed my xmh, found it unresponsive, and
did a ps to see if anything was up:
thames% ps x
PID TT STAT TIME COMMAND
880 co I 0:04 /usr/bin/dxsession :0
1656 co S 0:07 /usr/local/bin/mwm
1666 co S 0:24 xterm -geometry 80x52+15+0
1668 co S 0:52 xterm -geometry 80x57-15+15
1669 co R N 73:01 xmh
2354 ? IW 0:00 zwgc
2261 p0 IW 0:00 -csh (tcsh)
and so it would appear that we have achieved
tight-loop-edness. I did a ``kill -4'', but
no coredump resulted (?).
SETTING
PMAX + Ultrix 3.1
X11R4 xmh in /usr/local/bin/xmh
REPEAT BY
Unknown
DISCUSSION
Only such case to my knowledge. File service problems
can be ruled out. The lack of a coredump after a SIGILL
is a bit odd.
