Dear Eli Zaretskii,

thanks for your reply and no problem, here we go, assuming the script you've been speaking of is https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Crashing.html

The file contains quite a number of question marks, though

The emacs in question is incidentally the current emacs version in Archlinux

Best regards,

Marc
