One of many, many things wrong with GDB's tab completion. The biggest problem with cleaning this up is an interface missing in readline 4.x; I got the necessary bits added to 5.x, but upstream hasn't upgraded yet. So, thanks for the report, but it may be some time before I can fix it. -- Daniel Jacobowitz CodeSourcery, LLC -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
