fyi;
Version 7 on windows XP SP2.
I seem to have confused Mathematica (and myself) a bit here:
This line of code will crash Mathematica: (WARNING: SAVE your notebooks
before running this)
Manipulate[Null, {{n, a, "n"}, 1, 10}, {{a, n, "a"}, 1, 10}]
I know why, a cyclic dependency, I'll fix my code, was an oversight, but I
do not think this should have caused a crash. I'll send a bug report to
support as well.
