Why can't you test the library with your programs in a serial fashion? Do you really need to start the second test before finishing the first? (I'm sure you do, but I'm just trying to understand how and when the need arises) > ...In that situation, when I want to > set a breakpoint in some file of the library by C-x SPC, its > usually for a gdb buffer that I visited most recently. > Otherwise, I'd like to type C-u C-x SPC and expect Emacs to > ask me for which gdb buffer to set the break point. Perhaps we could implement that behaviour for 'gdb -fullname' (assuming it doesn't already have it). Nick
