Hello, according to http://www.mathematica-users.org/webMathematica/wiki/wiki.jsp?pageName=FAQ_Saving_your_work I tried to save all definitions in a current session with DumpSave["somesession.mx", Evaluate[Contexts[]]] While this seems to work in 5.x, in 6.01 this command terminates/hangs the kernel even in a pristine session with the following comment: ***snip*** Mathematica has detected an internal error: mxfile hashing Please report this error as soon as possible to support at wolfram.com giving as many details as possible of the circumstances under which it occurred. ***snip*** In parallel to shipping this on to Wolfram: perhaps someone encountered the same problem or can give me a cue or a workaround on how to save my session to file in v6. Thanks, Yves
