@example/@end example. Without this it formatted fine by
texinfo-format-buffer in Emacs, but makeinfo insisted on paragraphing
it!
Also removed "gdb/" from in front of one instance of libiberty...
Minor typo and formatting fixes; incorporated most fixes remaining from
filed mail commenting on earlier drafts.
Added warnings: pipes don't work in run command;
conditions are converse of assertions;
step over fn without debug info goes to next fn;
vars may have "wrong" values near fn entrance, exit
Added example from Kingston on printing repeated nonadjacent values
Added explicit mention that in Emacs gdb mode C-c and C-z are like
shell mode for signals
Improved installation directions in appendix, added manual formatting
instructions
Renamed "Stepping and Continuing" to "Continuing and Stepping" so it
doesn't sound so much like its parent "Stopping and Continuing"; also
moved entries on continue to top of section, so they don't get lost.
through chapsec 5.2)
(2) Eliminated use of @footnote---had my doubts about it anyways, and
it's broken in latest texinfo
(3) Introduced *some* use of [] for optional arguments, where
explanation is not simpler by listing cmd w arg and cmd w/out arg
separately. Still not using @deffn.
(4) Dropped in GPL-2. NOTE: one of GPL-2 or texinfo is broken; a
couple of headings are too long. Need patches to texinfo or revision
to GPL-2.

gdb.texinfo and gdb.top-m4).

cross-debugging manuals (material near front, in "invocation").
2) Allowed $Id: tag to appear as texinfo comment.
2) allowed $Id: tag to appear in post-M4 file by turning it into texinfo
rather than m4 comment;
3) Disabled @group where no longer supported by texinfo
in gdb.top-m4 when files were split), for continuity in version
numbering: the version of the manual is the version of the layout file.

instructions to "Targets" chapter for generic manuals, while
leaving them up front for manuals specific to specialized
environments; apply fixes from RMS comments through chapter 4.
* pretex.m4: modify explanatory text slightly (and redefine
"regexp") to keep GNU m4 from complaining. (It still crashes
later, but one step at a time...)
(2) Reorganized, bringing more common commands forward, merging
"print" and "x" into one section;
(3) New sections: "Essential Commands", "GDB Scripts";
(4) Material on convenience vars and value history added to "Expressions";
(5) Uses PostScript fonts by default, also includes (commented out) alternative
Computer Modern font definitions that format similarly.
Update stuff on option flags, full text, mention -help;
Better localization of target-specific stuff;
introduce 'path' command and discussion of exec path as opp src path;
document which commands don't repeat w RTN;
update and improve several examples, eg deleting (...)
Throughout: attempts to clarify etc.
