Summary: Re-worded request for run-time monitor / console information

Hello,

  Could anyone give me an indication of whether a run-time monitor exists
for
    a) offscreen message printing,
    b) Unix style command parsing / batch files,
    c) Assert / pointer checking interface.
  Or whether it would be very easy / legal to make one out of some Linux
code ?

  The reason I ask is that I have already written one, ( similar but more
powerful than the Quake console ) and have a problem with saving
crash-logs. It seems that having installed a new handler for say SIGABRT
using 'signal', that when a SIGABRT happens the 'save log' code causes a
GPF. I seem to remember reading in some Spec.  that signals could only be
routed to only a few standard routines, is this the case ?, is the problem
solvable ? 

  Thanks,

	Michael.
