Yes it is in the executable, but please specify the *full name* of the executable, hello.exe *not* just hello... ie fsdb hello.exe will work. > > I am familiar with the commercial low-level debugger SoftICE. > It is loaded like a driver from AUTOEXEC, and sometimes > CONFIG. Do I need to do something like that for fsdb and > edebug32? Maybe add a line to djgpp.env? Just specifying the full name is enough. I know it might seem stupid that a dos debugger doesn't do this itself (as the turbo debuggger and any debugger ment for dos AFAIk does)..but I suppose that this is due to DJGPP's having s significant GNU flavour... For example in borland bcc "test.cpp" will produce a test.exe output..but gcc "test.cpp" will only produce a mysterious a.out file.."gcc test.cpp -o test" will not produce test.exe..the executable will be called "test" So it is importatnt to specify the full name....
