Please understand, however, that it is impossible to move everything to the beginning of the section. Most manual sections do not include unimportant information, so it could be a tough choice. The reader is assumed to read the text in its entirety, not just the first couple of paragraphs. > It would also be nice to have a more in-depth description of exactly > which watchpoint-related events GDB is actually able to intercept. Please elaborate. Unless I misunderstand what you mean, we already describe this in depth.
