Bonjour Eric Well, I think it all depends on perspective - the sun probably doesn't see itself as a star either, from its perspective it's just a big planet surrounded by some less tropical planets. But I apologize if my praise was embarrassing, and I will try to prevent myself from causing you embarrassment in future (although of course I still welcome any help you can provide!) I am interested in what you say that the message history should not be saved if Rev crashes. Since they are saved, that gives me something to investigate.
I had implemented my own backscript to log all the standard Rev messages and log them, but it didn't reveal anything untoward preceding a crash. Then I found out about Rev's own built-in (but undocumented) verboseLog.txt, which logs far more things (certainly including the setting of revGeneral custom properties, and apparently also function calls). The log produced this way is far more verbose than mine (they are even logging things like 'idle' messages). However, after analyzing that log following two crashes yesterday, it also revealed nothing (the last few statements in it were just 'mouseMove' and 'mouseLeave'). Since Jacques informs us that this is also the logging mechanism used in the Windows crash logs, and they were unhelpful to Runrev in diagnosing my crashes on Vista, it looks to me that unless we as users can identify some observable sequence of actions on our part there is currently no tool that aids in debugging crashes.
