Thank you.

When I attach to my remote target, if the target is running (not stopped
at a breakpoint) gdb currently doesn't know it and presents the gdb
prompt as if the inferior were stopped. Clearly I've not implemented the
protocol correctly in this case.

Should I stop the inferior when the client is attached? Or should I send
a response from my target that will indicate to gdb that it is currently
running?

Is there a reference for the most recent remote protocol? I'm sure I've
only implemented a small subset of the protocol, and that probably isn't
%100 correct.

Thanks again,
Brian
