Subject: Re: -nx and .gdbtkinit
Date: Fri, 18 Nov 2005 23:36:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200511181536.30158.bkorb@gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <437E5954.60104@redhat.com>

What is the processing order of these files?

Another way of putting it: could not the ``-nx'' option be
added to the .gdbtkinit file and cause it to inhibit .gdbinit?
I stubbed my toe on this some time back and it did take some
bother to "get it right".....

Cheers - Bruce
