Indeed. It looks simple enough.

do you have some kernel requirement ? I run Fedora 8

Here's my first try on a program calculating decimal of PI : 

	$ ./cr -p `pidof pi1` > pi1.cryo
	attaching to pid: 11082
	[11087 cr.c:243 getfdinfo()] n : 0
	WARNING (sci.c:242) unexpected signal for 11082: 11
	[11087 sci.c:228 ptrace_waitsyscall()] WTERMSIG(status) : 11
	ERROR (sci.c:383) ptrace_getregs(11082, 0xbfe4a3d0) errno=3: No such process
	./cr[0x8051f10]
	./cr[0x8049ce9]
	./cr[0x804b7d2]
	./cr[0x804f75b]
	***STOP***

other terminal :

	$ pi1 20000
	pi1 - 20000 digits, 78.1 kbytes
	Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Thanks,

C.
