gdb in Emacs 23

[mwnn]

Hi,
    I am using Emacs 23 (from CVS). In a GDB session we normally type 
one of the GDB commands (e.g. n, s, ...) and then just type the return 
key so that the previous command is executed. But in Emacs 23 the return 
key does not do that. The user has to explicitly type the GDB command 
all the times. Is there a work around for this issue.

Regards.

Not currently as this mode (in trunk) is in a developmental stage.  If you are
interested in improving it, please send your patches to emacs-devel@gnu.org.
If you just want to debug your own programs, I would suggest using the version
on the release branch (cvs up -r EMACS_23_1_RC) for the moment.

This code is under active development. Your particular issue has already
been reported.
