I already have done it on my side. Hi Joel, I've applied the diff to the branch 6_5 and then realised I jumped the gun so have retracted the patch and I'm submitting it here for approval: diff -r1.188 NEWS 61a62,70 > * Improved Modula-2 language support > > GDB can now print most types in the Modula-2 syntax. This includes: > basic types, set types, record types, enumerated types, range types, > pointer types and ARRAY types. Procedure var parameters are correctly > printed and hexadecimal addresses and character constants are also > written in the Modula-2 syntax. Best results can be obtained by using > GNU Modula-2 together with the -gdwarf-2 command line option. > apologies, Gaius
