Rob:
    While you are adding changes for crash message features would you
    please add the following feature.
    Add a magic number to the abort. abort(magic number) so that
    when the abort contains the magic number and is executed that you
    process it the same way as you process a run-time error.
    That is dump all the data to a ex.err file and display the crash
    message.
    I have been using this method to debug my code by using abort(1/0)
    executing this causes a divide by zero error and dumps the error
    file and displays the crash message. ( This works OK but the error
    file says divide by zero error ) The only thing to add would be
    needed is to detect the magic number and taking the same action
    as a divide error and changing the error message to "Debug Dump".
