A good first cut: 1.) get the pid of emacs, with something like ``ps waux | grep -i = emacs'' at a shell. We'll call it PID 2.) run gdb 3.) at the gdb prompt '(gdb)', type: attach PID and then wait for gdb to load emacs. 4.) if you get a gdb prompt back, type: where and send us the results.=20 It's entirely possible that Drew's suggestion re: dribble-file is more = helpful.
