   Sorry, maybe I didn't explain my question very well.  GDB use GNU-readline
as its command interface.  In UNIX if I want to set the GDB editing-mode to
vi mode.  I can put a command, "set editing-mode vi" in ~/.inputrc file.
Then when GDB involve readline, it will look at the commands inside ~/.inputrc. 
It's different from the GDB initialization file (gdb.ini for DOS and .gdbinit
for UNIX machine).

   So, again, what's name of GNU-readline initialization file in DOS
environment which will change the command interface of GDB ?

Thanks.
