1992-09-02Formatting improvements and other minor edits.Roland Pesch1-651/+829
1992-08-25Markup changes to run through TeX without errors.Roland Pesch1-13/+32
WARNING: (1) this has not yet been proofread as a printout---just eliminated problems that TeX complained about. (2) extraneous line breaks introduced in some examples, sometimes in ridiculously long strings; this may falsify examples. Places where I did this are marked by FIXME comments.
1992-08-25Some improvements in Texinfo markup:Roland Pesch1-214/+407
1) use makeinfo node defaulting 2) correct bad xref 3) use @display, @exdent, etc. as first approximation to Julia's clever typewriter markup; **THIS WILL NEED STUDY AND REVISION** 4) introduce many nodes rather than ---- in "detailed reference" appendix
1992-08-24FIXME. Half-done documentation for the macros used to configure GDB'sJohn Gilmore1-0/+6
sources. What's there now is a list of all macros, and at least one source file in which they are referenced.

* gdb.texinfo: in h8 config, do not describe searching commands.
1992-08-18Sigh; rectify error from jumping the gun on editing file while CVSRoland Pesch1-3/+2
checkin proceeding. Check in with most generic markup for page layout.
1992-08-18Check in with @smallbook commented out!Roland Pesch1-1/+2
1992-08-18Mon Aug 17 18:07:59 1992 Roland H. Pesch (pesch@fowanton.cygnus.com)Roland Pesch5-457/+456
* gdb.texinfo, none.m4, h8.m4, gdbinv-s.m4.in: improve H8/300 conditionals; introduce a few generic switches that may be useful for other cross-dev or dos-hosted configs. * gdb.texinfo: fix typo in "info reg" description

1992-07-14(1) add disclaimer to config section of "Installing" appendix (this isRoland Pesch1-39/+39
NOT full config doc) and xref to configure.info (2) add brief mention of --help and --prefix=DIR configure options (3) re-enable, with new command names, old doc for commands now reorganized into maint. (NO new doc yet for new maint commands or for old undoc'd dump-me; nor for "maint" itself in general.)
1992-07-11First attempt at doc for general uses of quotes around symbols.Roland Pesch1-1/+28
1992-07-11(1) C and C++ treated as separate languages, not one as originally doc'dRoland Pesch1-12/+22
(2) [temporarily, until "maint" details avail] hide explanations of commands moved to "maint" so we don't risk releasing doc with obsolete names: printsyms, printmsyms, printpsyms, info all-breakpoints.
1992-07-10New title "Debugging with GDB", the fruit of protracted delicateRoland Pesch1-10/+10
negotiations with the FSF...

1992-06-24(1) removed three-part table of config name components from InstallingRoland Pesch1-101/+14
appendix (too hard to maintain, esp w/recent versions of config.sub). Also corrected xref to this section accordingly. (2) updated sample output from config.sub to match latest variation of that script (3) minor editing to gnu contrib text on set/show remotedebug
1992-06-23Minor edits to new GNU material on special commands for AMD29K registerRoland Pesch1-10/+15
stack limit.

1992-06-02Fix from net: when predigesting doc for texi2roff, search for "@c " atRoland Pesch1-3/+3
the beginning of a line, rather than just "@C" at the beginning of a line, to identify (and remove) comments.
