If you are going to change this output then I think it is important to have an equivalent MI command whose output is stable. I started a thread about this on the gdb mailing list back in June, and posted a patch, probably lousy, on gdb-patches: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2004-06/msg00652.html to describe the functionality I was hoping to have and which was titled: [RFC] (was Re: How does GDB/MI give the current frame). Could this be included in the discussion too, please. Nick Update on Emacs: We're six months into the feature freeze and there still hasn't been a pretest. Emacs is starting to look like one of those immaculate classic cars that goes everywhere on a trailer. Well you wouldn't want to get it dirty, would you?
