Thanks. Is it possible to modify the wording so that it doesn't use passive tense so much? I'm told by native English speakers that passive is BAD... For example, this: > If a breakpoint location cannot be found, you are queried to see if > you wish to make the breakpoint pending on a future shared-library > load. could be rephrased like this: If a breakpoint location cannot be found, GDB queries you if you wish to make the breakpoint pending on ... Etc., you get the point. TIA
