Yes: . start Emacs from a Command prompt window like this: gdb emacs . this will show the GDB prompt "(gdb)". Type "run" (without the quotes) to run Emacs under GDB. . when Emacs starts up, do whatever you need to cause Emacs crash . when Emacs crashes, you will see the "(gdb)" prompt in the Command prompt window where you started Emacs under GDB. Type at that prompt: thread apply all bt . GDB will show the backtrace; copy/paste it into your email reply to this message, and send your email rely > If I don't bother with the debugger, and press "No" button in the > messagebox that pops up a "emacs_backtrace.txt" is generated. > > Is that sufficient? If not then I need more information about capturing > the backtrace. The file emacs_backtrace.txt can only be interpreted on your system, since the program which converts the addresses to file names and function names needs to read the emacs.exe file on your system. So it is much less useful for us than a backtrace generated by GDB.
