Sometimes a program will quit using abort(x). If x is anything other than 0,
it is seen as an error. However, callling abort(x) will not generate an
ex.err file. If this is a program you wrote, check this first. Try using an
old Win32Lib trick by calling abort(1/0) causing a div. by zero and there by
generating an ex.err file.

I believe Robert Craig himself wrote the search engine. I believe someone on
the list was working on a new version, but I haven't heard anything in a
while, maybe that was for the Archive search.
