No setup is needed. Just download and install a MinGW port of GDB from the MinGW site, and then chdir to the Emacs src directory and run Emacs like this: c:\whatever> gdb ../bin/emacs.exe (This assumes that emacs.exe is installed in a directory that is a sibling to the src directory under the same parent directory.) Note that it is imperative that you start GDB from the src directory, since we need it to read the file src/.gdbinit which defines various useful commands for debugging Emacs. After you start GDB like above, type at the GDB prompt: (gdb) run -Q and then, after Emacs finishes its startup, invoke the dired command as you did to crash it. _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
