This is GDB, the GNU source-level debugger.
the GNU CC compiler. It is available via anonymous FTP from the
directory `ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/gcc'.
+ GDB uses Expat, an XML parsing library, to implement some target-specific
+features. Expat will be linked in if it is available at build time, or
+those features will be disabled. The latest version of Expat should be
+available from `http://expat.sourceforge.net'.
+
GDB can be used as a cross-debugger, running on a machine of one
type while debugging a program running on a machine of another type.

remote-est.c EST emulator
remote-hms.c Renesas Micro Systems H8/300 monitor
remote-mips.c MIPS remote debugging protocol
- remote-rdi.c ARM with Angel monitor
- remote-rdp.c ARM with Demon monitor
remote-sds.c PowerPC SDS monitor
remote-sim.c Generalized simulator protocol

- remote-vx.c VxWorks realtime kernel
-
- Remote-vx.c and the vx-share subdirectory contain a remote
-interface for the VxWorks realtime kernel, which communicates over TCP
-using the Sun RPC library. This would be a useful starting point for
-other remote- via-ethernet back ends.
