RE: [avr-gcc-list] Debugger GUI

[Theodore A. Roth]

I use avr-gdb with ddd as the gui front-end and simulavr/avarice as the
back-ends. Works great for me.

You can also use emacs as a gdb front-end, but you still need to know the
commands for gdb.

Not yet, but soon... downloading insight-5.2.92.tar.bz2 right now (that's
a big tarball ;-)... ./configure --target=avr ... make ... make install

Looks good to me. Insight looks interesting, will have to give it a try
now that it's on my system.

gdb-5.3 (and insight too) should be released later today. That should work
out of the box (no patch needed) for avr with the --target=avr configure
option.
