Re: x5250 seg fault

From memory I would say that 99.9% of the time (and maybe all of the

anything) and pasting in to tn5250. It can happen coming from Word,
Excel, Firefox, Notepad, etc.

I can't recall it happening from one 5250 session from another though,
although it could have and I just to not recall.

I followed your posts about crashes with copy/paste but I thought those were with the Windows version (and I'm guessing I'm correct since you mention Word and Excel). If this problem also affects x5250 (which runs on linux/*nix/*BSD) then that would be significant as it would indicate that the problem lies in the library code and not the front end code.

the design of operating systems. please pass them along to redmond
when you're done reading them :)
