 Yes, it does work outside of Windows.  That is, the non-dpmi version allows
me to set breakpoints and step past them without error signals.  I am not
sure how mem would cause an illegal instruction signal, but anything's
possible.  I have had the same performance on two different installations
(differing machines) now.  MSDOS (non-dpmi works), and Windows/DOS shell
(dpmi version of gdb) doesn't.  I assume that you have been able to use gdb
under Windows ???   I am hoping that it is just something simple I am doing
wrong.  My editor of choice is a Windows program....
