[Mac OS X TeX] TeXShop crashing OS X

Hi John

Is there anything in the Console ?  This is in Applications > Utilities ?

You might  need to turn on crash logging in Preferences > Crashes.  You may
need to then bring on another crash and, if you are lucky, you will
get a crash log saved in ~/Library/Logs.


Good luck - Michael
