Dear listmembers,
I am new to the list, so maybe this is the wrong place, but anyway. I compiled texmacs on suse linux just fine. However, during operation I am observing random crashes maily when operating the top panel / the menus. Even when started from shell the main window suddenly disappears without leaving any note, no "null pointer assignment", no "bus error" no whatsoever.

If it doesn't leaves any note, are you sure these are crashes, then ?

What kind of debug level should be activated best for such kind of debugging?

Try :
[[
shell-prompt>texmacs -debug-all {Carriage Return}
_
]]

It gives you a quite furnished (although incomplete) trace :

Any known relations to some core-tools that are being used / that are neccessary for operating texmacs?

No, there are no external tools necessary for operating TeXmacs, nor to debug it.

Secondly, is there a file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/TeXmacs (or similar) to configure default settings on a system wide basis like TeXmacs*geometry?

No, there is no such file.

What you can do is use the command line option -g to set the
geometry. You can use :
[[
texmacs --help
]]

yo get a list of all the available CLI options.


Best, Henri
