 103      "GDB is the GNU debugger.  With it, you can monitor what a program is
 104 doing while it runs or what it was doing just before a crash.  It allows you
 105 to specify the runtime conditions, to define breakpoints, and to change how
 106 the program is running to try to fix bugs.  It can be used to debug programs
 107 written in C, C++, Ada, Objective-C, Pascal and more.")
