FWIW I found it insufficient, and avoid the gdb/.gdbinit so rewrote it
in python so i get

(gdb)
(^gdb)
(^^gdb)
with each prompt being a different color, and absent the tethering to
the gdb/ dir like .gdbinit is.

the last being a limitation of the .gdbinit mechanism. I'll have to
clean it up a bit before posting it. Anyhow i've found it a far more
enjoyable experience than the plain old top-gdb prompt which i'd
always notice only after hitting enter.

sorry, if it is off-topic
