Hi Daniele I recently made a change in truncate (added cumulative distribution for twinned intensities), however I'm not sure whether 6.0.2 incorporates that change. I've not seen either of the problems you report before, all I can suggest is you re-compile truncate with the debug (-g switch), with no optimisation (no -O), and also bounds-checking turned on might be informative (-fbounds-check assuming you're using g77). Then run again with the debugger and post the traceback. It shouldn't need the ulimit command to work correctly since there are no huge arrays in truncate, and the "segmentation violation" error usually indicates array bounds overflow (which programmers in general are very lax at checking!).
