cgdb is a curses interface for gdb. It's prerry simple to handle for people who know vi (such as myself) and requires no patching to work on Cygwin - except the patches needed to the configury to make it compile outside of the
source tree.


This one is vetoed.  Sorry.  If we are going to use a curses interface to gdb
we should use the one that is built in to gdb.  It's called the "tui".

The next time I build gdb, I'll look into turning this on to see how it works.

I actually built a recent gdb HEAD ss w/tui. Tui seemed to work, although not all of the border modes show up right in rxvt. I'm sure with some tweaking, even that could be fixed.


Cheers,
Nicholas
