- Short: V0.9 Kills GURUs (stack problem)
- Author: steger@pass.dnet.it (Georg Steger)
- Uploader: steger@pass.dnet.it (Georg Steger)
- Version: 0.9
- Type: util/boot
- Requires: OS 2.0 (V36)
-
- If you are running many programs that patch system functions (such as
- commodities and hacks) it might happen that sometimes your machine
- crashes without real "motivation". This is often caused by a too low
- stack of many programs (because of the patched routines increasing the
- stack usage of the corresponding system function).
-
- StackAttack tries to kill these GURUs by patching CreateProc(), CreateNew-
- Proc(), RunCommand() and SystemTagList(). It alters the stack passed to
- these routines depending on what parameters you supply to StackAttack.
-
- StackAttack allows you to set a minimum stack size a new process (program)
- shall have and also by how much bytes you want to increase the stack further
-
-
- NOTES:
- ======
-
- o StackAttack only eats just about 210 bytes!!
-
- o StackAttack is also part of PowerWindows. The version in this archive
- is newer than the one present in PowerWindowsUp.lha V1.1.1!

- *** StackAttack is FREEWARE ***
