Sorry, I figured out my mistake (with respect to be unable to set breakpoint). It's still not working smoothly.. the breakpoint is activated with each character I type.. so not sure what's up.
As you already have the debug info, I will put learning gdb on my short term to-learn list.
Thanks.
Are you sure you want to change it? (y or n) [answered Y; input not from terminal]
