- It's been quite a while since I've used it, but I seem to remember being
- able to run it properly. How much stack did you use? I always have a
- huge stack (250000) because I run GCC and GNU Emacs all the time, so
- maybe you should try running it with a really huge stack, as well. Also,
- I seem to remember giving it my file arguments on the command line
- rather than waiting for a prompt, you could try that too.
-
- Has anyone else had the problems Joel's seeing? I don't use it often,
- but I do like the idea of having a fully working SPICE at home. :)
