I had difficulty getting dumper.exe to produce a core dump.  Here are the
steps that I took.

$ ps
Part of the output gives:
WINPID: 2504, COMMAND: /usr/bin/emacs

I tried to run dumper on this program

$ dumper -d emacs 2504
The output reads:
Dumping process #2504 to emacs.core
Setting bfd architecture: No error

I can't find emacs.core on my system, but a folder called .emacs.d was
created in my home directory.  

Thanks

Craig Johansen
