Your `dumpfile' file appeared to actually be a directory listing and an
invocation of Symify. This isn't a lot of help.

Also, please post text-type files here as text. When you use your mailer's
`attach' feature, it uuencodes it. Many people won't take the time to decode
it, so you'll get less help. You may need to do a copy/paste type thing. But
what you want is the plain text included in the mail.

Okay, here are some.
- Try running it under DOS. CWSDPMI may have some more intelligent things to
say about your problem than Windows 3.1's DPMI server.

- Try to narrow down where the problem is. Either start removing pieces of
code until the problem goes away, or work through with a debugger. (Note:
you will have to debug under DOS.)

- If you don't find a bug, post your source and the symify output here (not
uuencoded). Looking at your dir listing, it seems the source is moderately
large, so please try to isolate the offending portion first.
