gdb-gui
This is gdb-gui, a GUI for gdb. This GUI differs from existing gdb
GUIs in a few ways:
* It runs in-process.
* It is written in Python.
* It is intended to interoperate well with the CLI.
You can pick and choose which windows you want to see, and you can
still do whatever you like in the terminal.
* It is totally incomplete.
To get started, install the prerequisites. You'll need a
Python-enabled gdb, PyGtk, and PyGktSourceView. (And maybe more -- if
you trip across something, let me know.) You'll need the Python
development package to compile the small C module that is included
here.
On Fedora I think this suffices:
sudo yum install gdb python-devel pygtksourceview pygtk2
After you install this, type "make". Now, start gdb and source the
"SourceMe.py" file. This sets everything up.
This adds a new "gui" command to gdb. Currently the only subcommand
is "gui source", which pops up a source window. The source window
will automatically track your progress when debugging. You can make
multiple source windows; they will be reused in an LRU fashion.
