Disabling core dumps

There are at least three ways, two I have seen already here on the net,
1) "mkdir core" and 2) "limit coredumpsize 0" (which ONLY works if you type
that from csh!) Another way is to create the file core and use "chmod -w core"
to make it unwritable by everyone (including yourself). Pick the way that's
easiest for you.
