<programming, utility> GNU debugger. The FSF's symbolic
debugger for C, C++ and other languages. Developed by
many people but most recently Fred Fish <fnf@cygnus.com>, Stu
Grossman <grossman@cygnus.com> and John Gilmore
<gnu@cygnus.com> all of Cygnus Support. GDB fills the same
niche as dbx. Programs must be compiled to include
debugging symbols.
Version 4.11. Distributed under GNU CopyLeft. It runs on
most Unix variants, VMS, VXWorks, Amiga and MS-DOS.
FTP gdb-*.tar.[zZ] from a GNU archive site.
