+Create a new TUI layout. The new layout will be named @var{name}, and

+
+Each @var{window} parameter is either the name of a window to display,
+or a window description. The windows will be displayed from top to

+
+The names of the windows are the same as the ones given to the

+window can be specified. Note that, because it is of fixed height,
+the weight assigned to the status window is of no importance. It is

+
+A window description looks a bit like an invocation of @code{tui

+@{@r{[}@code{-horizontal}@r{]}@var{window} @var{weight} @r{[}@var{window} @var{weight}@dots{}@r{]}@}.
+
+This specifies a sub-layout. If @code{-horizontal} is given, the
+windows in this description will be arranged side-by-side, rather than
+top-to-bottom.
+
+Each @var{weight} is an integer. It is the weight of this window
+relative to all the other windows in the layout. These numbers are
+used to calculate how much of the screen is given to each window.
+
+For example:
+
+@example
+(gdb) tui new-layout example src 1 regs 1 status 0 cmd 1
+@end example
+
+Here, the new layout is called @samp{example}. It shows the source
+and register windows, followed by the status window, and then finally
+the command window. The non-status windows all have the same weight,
+so the terminal will be split into three roughly equal sections.
+
+Here is a more complex example, showing a horizontal layout:
+
+@example
+(gdb) tui new-layout example @{-horizontal src 1 asm 1@} 2 status 0 cmd 1
+@end example
+
+This will result in side-by-side source and assembly windows; with the
+status and command window being beneath these, filling the entire
+width of the terminal. Because they have weight 2, the source and
+assembly windows will be twice the height of the command window.

+@item --with-debuginfod
+Build @value{GDBN} with libdebuginfod, the debuginfod client library.
+Used to automatically fetch source files and separate debug files from
+debuginfod servers using the associated executable's build ID. Enabled
+by default if libdebuginfod is installed and found at configure time.
+debuginfod is packaged with elfutils, starting with version 0.178. You
+can get the latest version from `https://sourceware.org/elfutils/'.

@item --with-libunwind-ia64
Use the libunwind library for unwinding function call stack on ia64
target platforms. See http://www.nongnu.org/libunwind/index.html for
This feature is optional. If present, it should contain registers
@samp{fp0} through @samp{fp7}, @samp{fpcontrol}, @samp{fpstatus} and
@samp{fpiaddr}.
+
+Note that, despite the fact that this feature's name says
+@samp{coldfire}, it is used to describe any floating point registers.
+The size of the registers must match the main m68k flavor; so, for
+example, if the primary feature is reported as @samp{coldfire}, then
+64-bit floating point registers are required.
