To the list: BTW, this 'gdb emacs' will be a huge learning curve for me, and i will bug folks (is this the right forum or should i try g.e.help?) for help.. instead, if a GDB expert would like to pick this bug-report up, that would be cool :).. If not, here's the first snafu i ran into (i get to my umd.edu unix account through an ssh over QVT/Term on win2000)----> +---- | | student1:~: cd emacs | student1:~/emacs: cd src | student1:~/emacs/src: gdb /usr/local/gnu/bin/emacs21 | GNU gdb 4.18 | Copyright 1998 Free Software Foundation, Inc. | GDB is free software, covered by the GNU General Public License, and | you are | welcome to change it and/or distribute copies of it under certain | conditions. | Type "show copying" to see the conditions. | There is absolutely no warranty for GDB.
