I don't remember everything, I think a merge + diff would be more complete. Stuff I do remember: * linespec decoder function. This is handy if you want to write certain kinds of commands in python. * The "-P" argument that lets you start write gdb script in Python. * The code to let users post a Python function into the gdb event queue. This is necessary if you want to write a multi-threaded Python app on top of gdb. E.g., handy if you want to do GUI stuff. * The script library. I think most of these are useful, but some require some redesign first (e.g., new-backtrace -- there was a thread about this). Tom
