We have been using the tgdb full screen debugging interface with our
port of gdb to the transputer.  This is a publically distributed
shareware package which we are not yet permitted to distribute in a
modified version.  It uses an extended version of wish running on the
workstation host.  In the /pub/transputer/t9000 directory on
ecs.soton.ac.uk you will find

1. tgdb-1.1.src.tar.gz

The original distributed version of tgdb---this mainly consists of tcl
scripts.

2. tgdb_wish-sunos4.1.3.tar.gz

SunOS binaries for the extended wish that tgdb uses.

3. tgdb_diff.tar.gz

This contains context diffs for three of the tgdb scripts: partly bug
fixes and partly patches to make the debuge window work in our
environment.

There is also a file tgdbwin which is to be used as an alternative to
gdbwin when invoking full screen debugging.

I hope we will shortly have the licensing issues sorted out and will
then be able to distribute a ready-patched version.  In the meantime, I
suggest that you get tgdb to work native on your workstation before
applying the transputer support patches.



As Rob has now ben able to run the new versions, I have deleted the old
versions of wish, gdb and iserver from the archive.
