Hello,

thank you for your suggestion.

It implies an entry in ~/.gdbinit like:

define myprog
  file myprog.exe
  set args --arg val
end

The problem is, that, when starting gdb in Emacs and running this macro,
one nice feature is not realized. This is the automatic opening of the
file containing the main() - function.

I thought, maybe gdb-mode offers some interface ...
