HEADSUP to Emacs users


In a continuing effort to track down the cause of the mysterious crashes that some Emacs users have reported, I'm now wondering if these are caused by the stack being too small.

If you have been experiencing crashes, please issue the following command (as administrator, while emacs is not running):

  peflags -x0x80000 /usr/bin/emacs-*.exe

This increases the stack size to 8MB. And please let me know if you see any improvement as a result.

Thanks.

Ken
