-@top Using the Graphical Interface to @value{GDBN}
-@end ifinfo
-
-This file describes a graphical interface to @value{GDBN},
-the GNU symbolic debugger.
-
-@node Invocation
-@chapter Starting up GUI @value{GDBN}
-
-If @value{GDBN} has been configured to use the graphical interface,
-then you will get the interface automatically upon startup.
-
-When running as a Unix program and using the X11-based interface,
-you must of course be using an X server and/or workstation,
-and your @code{DISPLAY} environment variable must be set correctly.
-If either of these is not true, then @value{GDBN} will still start up,
-zbut will use only the traditional command interface.
-
-The exact layout and appearance of the windows will depend on the host
-system type. For instance, @value{GDBN} on MS-Windows will display
-its windows inside a larger window, while on X on a GNU/Linux or a
-Unix machine, each window is a separate toplevel window. However,
-general behavior and layout is consistent across all platforms;
-omissions or restrictions on particular platforms, if not documented
-as unavoidable, should be considered bugs and reported.
-
-All @value{GDBN} windows have a common structure. Each window has an
-associated menu bar, which may be at the top of the window or perhaps
-elsewhere. Some of the menus and menu items in the menu bar are
-common to all @value{GDBN} windows, while others are specific to
-particular types of windows. Below the menu bar is the working data
-area of the window. If the data is too large to display all at once,
-the data area will have scroll bars on its right and bottom sides.
-Below the data area are two optional features; a status/data line, and
-a button box.
-
-@section Menus
-
-@subsection File Menu
-
-The standard file menu provides operations that affect the overall state
-of @value{GDBN}, mainly file operations, but other things as well.
-
-@table @code
-@item About @value{GDBN}...
-Displays the startup window for @value{GDBN}.
-
-@item File...
-Lets you set the combined executable and symbol file that @value{GDBN}
-will use. (Like the @samp{file} command in the command-line version
-of @value{GDBN}.)
-
-@item Target...
-Brings up a dialog that you can use to connect @value{GDBN} to a
-target program. The dialog is described in more depth later. (Like
-the @samp{target} command.)
-
-@item Edit...
-Starts up an editor to modify the source file being displayed.
-
-@item Exec File...
-Lets you set the executable file that @value{GDBN} will use.
-(Like the @samp{exec-file} command.)
-
-@item Symbol File...
-Lets you set the symbol file that @value{GDBN} will use.
-(Like the @samp{symbol-file} command.)
-
-@item Add Symbol File...
-Lets you add additional symbol files.
-(Like the @samp{add-symbol-file} command.)
-
-@item Core File...
-Lets you set the core file that @value{GDBN} will use.
-(Like the @samp{core-file} command.)
-
-@item Shared Libraries...
-(Like the @samp{sharedlibrary} command.)
-
-@item Quit
-Quits @value{GDBN}.
-(Like the @samp{quit} command.)
-@end table
-
-
-@c @subsection Commands Menu
-
-@c The commands menu consists of items that let you run and control the program being
-@c debugged.
-@c
-@c @table @code
-@c @item Run
-@c
-@c @item Step
-@c
-@c @item Next
-@c
-@c @item Finish
-@c
-@c @item Stepi
-@c
-@c @item Nexti
-
-@subsection Windows Menu
-
-The @samp{Windows} menu allows access to all the windows available in
-@value{GDBN}. The first part of the menu lists all of the predefined
-individual windows. If the window exists already, its item will be
-marked as such; selecting the item will cause the window to be put in
-front if it is obscured. If it does not exist, then it will be
-created.
-
-The second part of the menu lists additional windows that you may have
-created, such as source windows or variable displays.
-
-@display
-Command
----
-Source
-Assembly
----
-Registers
-Variables

-Files
-@c ---
-@c <extra windows>
-@end display
-
-@subsection View Menu
-
-All windows have a @samp{view} menu, but its contents are highly
-specific to window type. For instance, a source window will have a
-view menu item to control the display of line numbers, but a register
-window will instead have an option to choose the radix in which to
-display register contents. You can find the full description of view
-options with each window type.
-
-@subsection Help Menu
-
-The @samp{Help} menu includes access to @value{GDBN}'s online help.
-
-@section Windows
-
-@subsection Command Window
-
-The @samp{Command} window provides access to the standard @value{GDBN}
-command interpreter. In nearly all cases, commands typed into this
-window will behave exactly as for a non-windowing @value{GDBN}.
-
-Note that not all changes to @value{GDBN} will be reflected in this
-window. For instance, if you were to type a @samp{step} command, then
-click on the @samp{step} menu item in the source window, then go back,
-and type another @samp{step} command, the command buffer will only
-show two steps, when you have actually done three. @value{GDBN} will
-put a ``@dots'' into the command buffer when operations in other
-windows are done, as a reminder that the command buffer is incomplete.
-
-@c Also note that as a side effect of having the interface and possibly an
-@c associated scripting language built in, additional commands may be
-@c available. For instance, if tcl is in @value{GDBN}, the command
-@c ``tcl <tcl code>'' will be available.
-
-The command window has no status line or button box.
-
-@subsection Files Window
-
-The @samp{Files} window lists all of the files that were used to build the
-executable.
-
-Clicking on the @samp{xxx} in the left margin expands/contracts the
-display of included files and symbols defined by the file.
-
-The @samp{View} menu for this window includes the following items:
-
-@table @code
-@item Name/Full Pathname
-@c @item Sort by Name
-@c @item Sort by Section&Offset
-@c @item Show All Included Files
-@c @item Included File Indentation...
-@end table
-
-@subsection Source Window
-
-A @samp{Source} window displays a single file of source code.
-
-The left margin includes an indicator for the current PC, breakpoints
-and potential breakpoints, and (optionally) line numbers.
-
-The @samp{View} menu for this window includes the following items:
-
-@table @code
-@item Show Line Numbers
-@item Show Breakdots
-@c @item Jump to PC (if pc changes, scroll back so PC is centered)
-@c @item Tab... (set tabbing)
-@end table

-@c
-@c GDBTK Interface Design
-@c
-@c This is the working document describing the design of the GDBTK
-@c interface. Note that overall layout applies only to the default setup;
-@c it is expected that debugger users will be able to customize extensively.
-@c
-@c Default Startup
-@c
-@c One source window, shows source as in "list main", does *not* set a
-@c break at main or run or anything. No current PC indicator, only put
-@c in when something runs.
-@c
-@c Source Window
-@c
-@c For native, "run" button is always the same, for cross, it's actually
-@c a "target" button that pops up appropriate dialog to get connected.
-@c Once remote target is active, change button to "run".
-@c
-@c Be able to toggle assembly interleaved between source.
-@c
-@c Command Window
-@c
-@c Is an *optional* window.
-@c
-@c Behavior mimics command-line @value{GDBN} running in an Emacs buffer as much
-@c as possible.
-@c
-@c Assembly Window
-@c
-@c Be able to toggle source interleaved between assembly.
-@c
-@c Target Info Window
-@c
-@c Contents similar to "info target".
-@c
-@c Should expand into process and thread info also.
-@c
-@c File Info Window
-@c
-@c Contents similar to "info files".
-@c
-@c Include data shown in "info sources" as well as "info files".
-@c
-@c Register Info Window
-@c
-@c Contents similar to "info registers".
-@c
-@c Add view option(s) for classes of registers.
-@c
-@c Stack Info Window
-@c
-@c Combines backtrace, frame, and local var displays.
-@c
-@c Signals Dialog
-@c
-@c Includes all signals whose handling may be controlled, plus
-@c checkboxes for what to do with each.
-@c
-@c Settings Dialog(s)
-@c
-@c Include all variables that can be "set" and "show"n.
-@c
-@c General Principles
-@c
-@c All windows should have a menu that allows access to other windows.
-@c Selection of item either brings up for first time or brings to front.
-@c
-@c All windows should have a "view" menu that controls formatting
-@c options for that window.
-@c
-@c Windows should usually be scrollable. Windows that display largish
-@c horizontal things should be horizontal and vertical scrollbars.
-@c
-@c To do standard modification, add commands or tcl code to .gdbtkinit.
-@c
-@c Be able to record window positions so they come up in the same way
-@c the next time. Could scribble on .gdbtkinit perhaps, or else an
-@c aux file that can be sourced by .gdbtkinit.
-
-@section How to Build
-
-If @value{GDBN} is configured with @samp{--enable-gdbtk}, then upon
-startup, it will open windows.
