Add Messages.app to that list, I discovered as I stupidly tried to explain how to repro it to someone..

  The fun thing about having it in messages.app, is it is actually a bug on the RECEIVING end of messages.app. And I can't seem to delete the message before the app crashes again. I'm so happy I have nice friends.

    Disable your spell checker and it will stop crashing. Then you can delete the message, and re-enable the spell checker.

      Why would the spell checker be running against in-coming messages? So that you can be a grammar pedant and annoy your friends?

        My guess would be that data detectors are used to detect and format links in incoming messages.
        • pyre 14y ago
          Then why would disabling Spellchecking affect that?

      This did not fix it for me. Turned off spell checker and text substitution. Have another solution?

        This will remove any messages from your iMessage database that contain %File:% (% is a wildcard): sqlite3 ~/Library/Messages/chat.db "delete from message where text like "%File:%"

  I dare not try it, but having that text as status on Facebook could crash those viewing my status using Safaris?

    No, you have it in the page just fine. It is only when it is in an NSTextField that it becomes an issue.
