Dear OSF Managers,
My original question was:
> Is there an X Frontend for dbx like e.g. xxgdb for gdb?
In only a few hours I got tons of replies.
Thanks to Hellebo Knut, Gottfried W.A. Klein, Ian Piumarta,
Winfried Huber, Andrew Moar and to all those whose mails I have not
yet received.
The main messages can be summarized as follows:
- I know of FUSE but in addition to being more than a X frontend to dbx (it's
actually a case tool) it costs money.
- On our SINIX platform (SVR4) you find "dbxgui", the Motif-based GUI for
dbx. More information you will find:

- You might try the GDB mode in Emacs.
It's not quite a graphical front end, but it takes a lot of the pain out of
typing all those endless "up" "down" "frame" and "print" commands.
- Try xdbx from
ftp://ftp.x.org/R5contrib/xdbx2.1.tar.Z
Personal experience:
The versions of xdbx I could find were outdated and not adequate.
But as I had a closer look at xxgdb I found out that it can be easily
compiled as a frontend to xdbx too as it set up on the xdbx code.
This solution is basically what I would suggest.
Thanks again, Greetings, Rolf.
