Subject:	1.11: Dump stack traces to file
Date:	Fri, 10 Dec 1993 00:27:40 -0800
From:	Darryl Okahata <darrylo AT hpnmxx DOT sr DOT hp DOT com>

FYI ...

     Here's a patch to the 1.11 GO32 that allows the optional dumping of
exception info/registers/stack trace to a file when GO32 detects an
exception.  With this patch, you can add the following to the GO32
environment variable:

	core <corefile>

If this is present in the GO32 environment variable, GO32 will *APPEND*
exception information, register values, and a stack trace to the file
whose name is given by "<corefile>", above.  If the above is not
present, GO32 will act as it currently does (writes to stderr).

     This is useful for users of DJGPP-compiled programs, as users can
simply mail the corefile information to developers when a program
crashes, instead of having to tediously copy down the cryptoglyphs on
the screen.
