How to report a crash log on Mac OS X Options

[jay]

Now that Savitar is in beta again, there stands a chance you may have an occasional unexpected crash.

If you are running on Mac OS X, it is immensely useful to email the crash log along with your bug report.

What's a crash log? It's information that Mac OS X writes to the Console. You can enable crash logs by going to the Console application (located in /Applications/Utilities/) and selecting the "enable crash logs" in the "Crashes" tab of the Console app's preferences. You can also enable "automatically display crash logs" which will make it really easy for you to copy/paste the log to a Savitar bug report email.

Search Mac OS X help for "crash log" for more info.

Thanks!
