All my free/play time is scheduled for rest. :-( I'm really sorry for you your tendinitis does not go away. In the meantime, you can give me write access to the sourceware git repository: I'll upload my "work in progress" there and so we'll have a common reference base. Of course, if you don't like it you can zap it after all: in any case there will be no damage to what officially exists yet because the git repo is currently empty. > I will do my best to take a look at what you've done. It sounds like you're headed in a direction that encompasses the "ideal" build for insight. Perhaps I can attempt to define some sort of extension API for gdb to cleanup the rest. [But I seriously doubt that (some) gdb maintainers would allow this.] I don't think there's an "ideal" solution, with regards to the project structure. In a modern approach, we should not deal with bundles and "third part" code should be independent libraries. We could decide to do so with (i)tcl/tk and iwidgets and even with libgui (by having it as a project by itself). But gdb is definitely not such an API library, and it has itself a bundled structure. Thus what you call "ideal" is just the less bad compromise :-/ Regards, Patrick
