+In addition to the other fully-supported programming languages,
+@value{GDBN} also provides a pseudo-language, called @code{minimal}.
+It does not represent a real programming language, but provides a set
+of capabilities close to what the C or assembly languages provide.
+This should allow most simple operations to be performed while debugging
+an application that uses a language currently not supported by @value{GDBN}.
+
+If the language is set to @code{auto}, @value{GDBN} will automatically
+select this language if the current frame corresponds to an unsupported
+language.
