Hi Mark, Yes, FIXME is really intended as a warning that something in particular needs to be fixed, but I was just using it like a print. Assuming that Wine is compiled with the usual options, you will see its output even if you didn't set any debug flags. I'm further from being a programmer than you are (physics grad student), just trying to learn something and make a few useful applications work. >From your next message... Oh well, that didn't reveal much! The pointer is not anything crazy, and in fact its value is one that didn't crash before. I was hoping maybe for something obviously weird. - Walter On Thu, 28 Oct 2004, Mark Knecht wrote: > On Thu, 28 Oct 2004 18:08:14 -0700 (PDT), Walt Ogburn > <reuben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hi Mark, > > > > This is strangely reminiscent of the error that Emanuele Gissi posted > > earlier.
