Avoid creation of DOS-console when running gdb in X11-xemacs


Hi,

when running a program from an GDB session within XEmacs
under fullscreen-X11 a new "DOS-"console window will popup
for the i/O of the program and so the context switches from
X11 to this new console.  This is quite annoying.

When running gdb from an xterm the programs I/O is also done
on this xterm.

(gdb) show new-console
Creation of new console when creating child process is off.

Using the "tty" gdb-command is no cure.

Robert

PS: Is there a way to teach GDB opening the program-file to debug
    read-only, in order to be able to rebuilt it without
    calling the "file" command twice, i.e.
    "file", "make", "file myprog.exe"
