lindna segmentation fault

[Suksiri Vichasri Grams]

Hi,

Every Mac-user will get this error message. Alan Bleasby told me it is 
a problem with the default stacksize which is set too small. You must 
change the default value in the shell, for the sh shell the command is 
: ulimit -S -s unlimited; cirdna... (no typo, it is ulimit)

In the tcsh shell is called : unlimit stacksize; cirdna...

More info can be found in the man pages of the shells (man sh, man tcsh 
etc)

Kindly,

Rudi
