Found out that this is solved by setting the following variable to non-nil (default is nil) : gdb-display-io-nopopup Also saw that there are incredible people with lots of patience, as this Stack Exchange post on this topic shows, with the subject: "How can I prevent gdb *input/output* buffer from aggressively popping up in frame?" The above solution is presented and the reply was: "Thank you, thank you, thank you! This has been an irritation for me for years!" I mean, years ? I couldn't stand it for a day ! :)
