In the old days of main frames. You got to work with punch cards, card readers and old clunky line printers. If you wrote some code that the compiler or interpreter could not resolve, You used to get what was called a 'core dump'. Several pages of mostly gibberish characters. The computer's equivilent of a dump of memory. Same deal here. If you open that file with a text editor, you may be able to pick up on a few words you understand. I del those files. Memory serves me, under Gnome, the icon looks kind of like a bomb.
