I'm confused. Why isn't "abort" the function that you want?
After looking on the internet on the term "dumping core" I noticed that
one had to write a piece of code to cause the crash.
I noted that one had to know what to do to cause the crash to get the
dump and gathered that while computer scientists and most engineers know
how to do this, it is not so ob

Back in the 1970's when we ran fortran on an IBM machine we had this
really powerful command called CALL FDUMP that if inserted into a
program would send the names and values of every variable, at the time
of its call, to a printer or file. In my opinion this was much more
