It's not quite clear what you mean by this. You can single-step in GDB (command "step" or just "s"), and it will show the code being executed, both in terms of C source lines. You con also single-step by machine instruction ("stepi" or "si"). This mode won't display the instruction to be executed, though. There is no 'slow running' mode like in, say, TurboDebugger, where the debugger would single-step each CPU instruction, execute it, display the changes to registers and memory, optionally pause a little while and go on with the next one, without user interaction. So you can "watch" the program run like you would watch TV. FSDB may be worth checking out --- it may have "slow" mode, but I'm not sure. > and hot to use 2 monitors? You just need to have 2 monitors of the right type, then it's easy. Unfortunately, the only "right" type for the second screen is an old Monochrome or "Hercules" card with a suitable monitor attached to it. If your machine is relatively modern and thus doesn't have any ISA slots, you're probably out of luck. DOS can switch back and forth to such a screen using commands 'mode mono' and 'mode co80'. OTOH, in a case like this I'd suggest to use RHIDE's GUI-integrated debugger or its standalone version (rhgdb). They can be moved to the mono screen and let the application work on the other. -- Hans-Bernhard Broeker (broeker AT physik DOT rwth-aachen DOT de) Even if all the snow were burnt, ashes would remain.
