Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers usually do not have translators to read other languages for them. Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list. Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug and the precise symptoms of the bug: The file content in a file causes Emacs to crash as soon as it's opened. Tested with "emacs -q file". This is a vimrc file, but it causes the crash under any name, so it's content-related and not mode-related. I can't attach the file directly because doing so crashes Emacs; I am attaching it compressed. If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger, please include the output from the following gdb commands: `bt full' and `xbacktrace'. If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file /usr/local/share/emacs/23.0.60/etc/DEBUG for instructions. #0 0xb7fe3410 in __kernel_vsyscall () No symbol table info available. #1 0xb76634b6 in kill () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 No symbol table info available. #2 0x081075d2 in fatal_error_signal (sig=0xb) at emacs.c:399 No locals. #3 No symbol table info available. #4 0x0818769d in print_object (obj=0x1, printcharfun=0x8369d49, escapeflag=0x1) at print.c:1731 end = c = i_byte = confusing = p = size_byte = buf = "��9\b\002\000\000\000\000\000\n�I\2356\b\001\000\000\000I\2356\b\001\000\000\000I\2356\b\001\000\000\000z?:\b" #5 0x0818bc5d in Fprin1 (object=0x1, printcharfun=0x8369d49) at print.c:750 old = (struct buffer *) 0x8370218 old_point = 0xffffffff start_point = 0xffffffff old_point_byte = 0xffffffff start_point_byte = 0xffffffff free_print_buffer = 0x0 #6 0x0818c19a in print_error_message (data=0x8d18dad, stream=0x8369d49, context=0xbfffedc6 "", caller=0x8391d91) at print.c:1105 obj = 0x0 errname = 0x83745f9 errmsg = 0x838aad3 file_error = 0x8369d19 tail = i = 0x1 #7 0x08110c8e in cmd_error_internal (data=0x8d18dad, context=0xbfffedc6 "") at keyboard.c:1283 No locals. #8 0x08110d95 in cmd_error (data=0x8d18dad) at keyboard.c:1222 old_level = 0x8369d19 old_length = 0x8369d19 macroerror = "\000���\004\b\000\000\000\000����@���\000\000\000\000\000\000��\031\2356\b��\205\b\000\000\n�\000\000\000\000\020\237>\b\000\237>\b" #9 0x0816f3bc in internal_condition_case (bfun=0x810d300 , handlers=0x83745c9, hfun=0x8110ce0 ) at eval.c:1501 val = c = {tag = 0x8369d19, val = 0x8d18dad, next = 0xbfffef30, gcpro = 0x0, jmp = {{__jmpbuf = {0x0, 0x83e9f10, 0x83e9f00, 0xbfffeef8, 0xebdc2081, 0x39e6a3ee}, __mask_was_saved = 0x0, __saved_mask = {__val = {0xb7643b1c, 0xbfff0002, 0xb7ff2259, 0x804ecee, 0xb78eacd4, 0xb7ffeff4, 0xbfffed50, 0xb73bf620, 0xbfffed84, 0xb7fed059, 0x8c2d778, 0xbfffed44, 0xb7782ff4, 0x8c2d778, 0xb7ffb5bc, 0xbfffed50, 0xbfffee50, 0xbfffeeb0, 0xbfffefd0, 0xffffffff, 0xbfffef38, 0x811f6c3, 0xbfffefd0, 0xb763fb9c, 0xb78ead20, 0x0, 0xffffffff, 0xb7ffeff4, 0x804a758, 0xb7fff668, 0xbfffef00, 0xb7ff1429}}}}, backlist = 0x0, handlerlist = 0x0, lisp_eval_depth = 0x0, pdlcount = 0x2, poll_suppress_count = 0x1, interrupt_input_blocked = 0x0, byte_stack = 0x0} h = {handler = 0x83745c9, var = 0x8369d19, chosen_clause = 0x8369d49, tag = 0xbfffee1c, next = 0x0} #10 0x08110a80 in top_level_1 () at keyboard.c:1355 No locals. #11 0x0816f46a in internal_catch (tag=0x8373611, func=0x8110a50 , arg=0x8369d19) at eval.c:1247 c = {tag = 0x8373611, val = 0x8369d19, next = 0x0, gcpro = 0x0, jmp = {{__jmpbuf = {0x0, 0x83e9f10, 0x83e9f00, 0xbfffeff8, 0xebde4081, 0x39e8bbee}, __mask_was_saved = 0x0, __saved_mask = {__val = {0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0xb76a3d91, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x8c52328, 0xb77652f5, 0x0, 0xb7784190, 0x0, 0x83a4022, 0x83a4648, 0x83a4020, 0xbfffefe8, 0x8160f75, 0x83a4649, 0x83a4022, 0x8369d19, 0x8370218, 0x0, 0x0, 0x8369d31}}}}, backlist = 0x0, handlerlist = 0x0, lisp_eval_depth = 0x0, pdlcount = 0x2, poll_suppress_count = 0x1, interrupt_input_blocked = 0x0, byte_stack = 0x0} #12 0x08110b29 in command_loop () at keyboard.c:1310 No locals. #13 0x08110ebb in recursive_edit_1 () at keyboard.c:942 val = #14 0x08110ff1 in Frecursive_edit () at keyboard.c:1004 buffer = 0x8369d19 #15 0x081068d5 in main (argc=0x3, argv=0xbffff3f4) at emacs.c:1777 dummy = 0x0 stack_bottom_variable = 0x8 do_initial_setlocale = skip_args = 0x0 rlim = {rlim_cur = 0x800000, rlim_max = 0xffffffffffffffff} no_loadup = 0x0 junk = 0x0 dname_arg = 0x0 In GNU Emacs 23.0.60.24 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.9) of 2008-11-17 on tzlatanov-ubuntu-desktop Windowing system distributor `The X.Org Foundation', version 11.0.10400090 configured using `configure '--without-makeinfo' 'CC=gcc'' Important settings: value of $LC_ALL: nil value of $LC_COLLATE: nil value of $LC_CTYPE: nil value of $LC_MESSAGES: nil value of $LC_MONETARY: nil value of $LC_NUMERIC: nil value of $LC_TIME: nil value of $LANG: en_US.UTF-8 value of $XMODIFIERS: nil locale-coding-system: utf-8 default-enable-multibyte-characters: t
