Visit ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/ for the latest versions of all DJGPP programs. There are three debuggers available for DJGPP: gdb (v2gnu/gdb416b.zip) Source level C and C++ debugger. Command line interface. fsdb (comes in v2/djdev201.zip) Low-level debugger. Windowed interface. Supports display of C and C++ source along with assembly code. A patched version exists that supports graphics debugging. edebug32 (comes in v2/djdev201.zip) Low level debugger. Command line interface. Supports display of C and (AFAIK) C++ source along with assembly code. The functionality of gdb has also been incorporated into the latest version of RHIDE 1.0, which is a full IDE with a Turbo-C style interface. The version on SimTel is not the absolute latest; see for complete information. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- | John M.
