3f73b7c868 * gdb.texinfo (C): In addition to saying people have to use g++ for
good results, say they have to use stabs.  Specifically say cfront
	doesn't work well.

	the gdb README.  Add xrefs to places where the support for the various
	languages is described in detail.

79bda3c7e8 * gdb.texinfo: Remove stuff about ar and 14 character filenames.
I believe this was fixed by the 13 Sep 89 change to print_frame_info.
	Also, modern versions of ar like BSD 4.4 or SVR4 don't have this bug.

09934a2b2e Introduce MOD2 switch to segregate material on Modula-2; eventually
each supported language should be controlled by a separate switch, and CONLY
should be retired.

d55320a07b * gdb.texinfo (Copying): delete this node and references to it;
RMS says this manual need not carry GPL. (passim): Improvements
from last round at FSF, largely due to Ian Taylor review, and
minor formatting improvements.

* gdbinv-s.texi (passim): Improvements from last round at FSF,
largely due to Ian Taylor review. (Debug Session): minor edits to
new text.

c5f69ff8a7 * gdbinv-s.texi (Remote Serial): describe new ^C behavior in
target remote.

Roland Pesch
75f844cce7 * gdb.texinfo (Shell Commands): do not mention SHELL env var in
DOSHOST configuration of manual.  (At least for the nonce, since
precisely how this works under DOS seems to depend on mysteries known
only to DJ Delorie, which are not easily fathomed from his source.)

	tense; (MIPS Remote) new node.

	* gdb.texinfo (passim) rephrases to work around makeinfo @value
	bug; (Environment) less passive, other small cleanups in text about
	.cshrc/.bashrc; (Invoking GDB) new MIPS Remote menu entry;
	(Remote) new MIPS Remote menu entry.

a1eff6c2ed Changes thanks to Jim Kingdon's vigilance:
* doc/gdb.texinfo: make node "Shell Commands" unconditional;
	describe `set demangle-style arm' (not cfront);
	mention can type `q' to discard output, when gdb pages

b0157555b6 (1) reduce the amount of text highlighted in warning at end of
"Program variables" section

51b65b7470 *-config.texi: introduce new switch GENERIC to describe text *only* for
(the usual) non-specialized versions of the manual.

gdb.texinfo: list of nonstandard init file names, with brief descriptions
             (permits closing PRMS gdb/2296).

1d7c3357dd 1. Update conditional markup:
(a) to make H8 configuration come out right (first attempt since
     conversion to texinfo conditionals);
 (b) to exploit yesterday's makeinfo bugfix, using conditionals in menus
     rather than multiple alternative menus.

2. Update H8 text to refer to H8/500 as well as H8/300.

3. Define config file gdb-config.texi as a link in Makefile, based on a
   DOC_CONFIG variable.

93918348e5 Minor stylistic cleanup; eliminated more contractions, eliminated

ed447b952e Fixes from (or inspired by) Bob Chassell editing pass for last
FSF printing of this manual.

18fae2a8db These changes abolish M4 preprocessing for the GDB manual.
Formatting these files now depends on the recently designed
Texinfo conditionals:  to format successfully, you must use very
recent versions (not yet distributed by FSF) of texinfo.tex and makeinfo.c.

The new Texinfo commands are @set, @clear, @ifset, @ifclear, and @value.
Recent texinfo-2 Beta distributions contained partial implementations.

texi2roff does not yet support these commands.

There are miscellaneous clean-ups to Makefile.in as well.
