Re: [Crash-utility] How to use scripts in crash?

It also has better facilities for coping with compile time structure variations. So if you need to learn a new language anyway (sial being a new language as it is not C), it may as well be python. Alternatively, you can also write shell scripts that emit crash commands into a file that, when sourced, does a bunch of crash commands before re-invoking itself. I finally did that since there is no provision for scripts to feed commands back to crash directly. It works. It's tricky. Attached is an example that will do approximate "bt"s on threads that were caught "on proc" at the time of a crash. It's my template. Cheers - Bruce
