I meant that it does not work for me EVEN when on standard console so I doubted it would work better over pipes much better. All the problems I described do happen when using standard console and never worked no matter which GDB I used (compiled by myself or by some third party). > > Do you perhaps have a ~/.inputrc file, or some other local > customization, which might affect how Readline works? Not that I know of. There's no ".inputrc" nor "inputrc" on my Windows filesystem. I believe GDB compiled by myself uses the readline that comes with GDB. Thanks!
