What version of Go are you using (go version)?

$ go version
go version go1.15.5 linux/amd64

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

I'm going to assume this means viewcore release because I don't think the go release matters here much.

What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?

What did you do?

Tried to load up viewcore on a coredump file and it just would not load.

What did you expect to see?

The prompt.

What did you see instead?

panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
[signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x1 addr=0x20 pc=0x72d4c9]
