There are actually quite a few gdb UIs, in addition to Insight and DDD. Maybe MI made it too easy to write gdb UIs :-) There's one written in Ada whose name I forget. Eclipse also comes with a gdb GUI. (The Eclipse one is interesting because, AIUI, it saves breakpoints more intelligently, as markers in your source.) Apple also has one in their IDE, but I know little about it. Finally, Anjuta[1] has one and KDevelop[2] has one. I haven't used most of these, and whether they meet your "usable" qualification is subjective... Tom [1] http://anjuta.sourceforge.net/ [2] http://www.kdevelop.org/
