Re: Debuggers and such...

[the grugq <grugq () hcunix net>]

the project which replaces ptrace() for intraprocess manipulation / 
control is the dude. by the same people who are writing the bastard, but 
its a seperate project. Its usual right now, but we haven't written a 
user interface. I'm planing on knocking up a "libptrace" which uses the 
dudes process control primitives, but exports the same interface as 
ptrace() so that we can just relink gdb and be good to go... but I
haven't really gotten around to it. I'm a lazy fuck, what can i say?

If there is high demand, maybe I'll kick it out this weekend. The most 
recent dude should be on sourceforge if anyone wants to have a play.


peace,
