This new version contains the following changes:

   * Added 'wrapscan' option (abbreviated 'ws').  Note that this means that
   'ws' no longer means winsplit, since this isn't the standard vi meaning.
   Fixed bug where 'n' jumps to the top of file when no search was previously
   done.

   * Fixed bug in TGDB. It would not return TGDB_ABSOLUTE_SOURCE_DENIED if
   TGDB called 'info source' and there was no line that returned the absolute
   source path.

   * Fixed bug in TGDB. TGDB would not query GDB for breakpoints on startup.
   However, the user can set breakpoints in there .gdbinit. TGDB now gets all
   breakpoints on startup. This fixes a bug in CGDB. The breakpoint will now
   be highlighted.

   * Fixed CGDB bug. When searching for text, CGDB would search for the next
   occurrence of the string from where it last found an occurrence, rather than
   where the users cursor is.

   * Fixed crash in TGDB. It would try to parse watchpoints.
   It will no longer do this.

   * Added new feature. CGDB added the 'set showtgdbcommands' option.
   If this is set, CGDB will show all the commands that it is sending
   to GDB to get work done. Otherwise, if its not set, CGDB will not show
   the user the commands. The default value is off. Although, I currently
   have mine set :). After all, you never can be to sure what this
   program is doing ...

   * Fixed bug in TGDB. TGDB used to return a newline for the front end to
   print when a GUI command was issued. This made sure the output of the
   command happened on a different line than the prompt. If the user ran
   many commands in a row through CGDB, you would see an extra new line
   appear. Now TGDB returns a new line when the command is actually given
   to GDB, not when the command is issued.

   * Fixed bug in TGDB. TGDB would not return the correct file:line if the
   user ran a command file through gdb on init and the file instructed gdb
   to set a breakpoint and run. CGDB would display line 1 of the correct
   file instead of the correct line.

   * Fixed bug in TGDB/CGDB. TGDB would return TGDB_UPDATE_SOURCE_FILES when
   there was no source files in the list ( ex. if the inferior was compiled
   without debug).  This would cause CGDB to act buggy when the user tried to
   open the filedlg on a program that was not compiled with debug. The first
   time you would open the file dialog it would display a blank screen. The
   second time it would give you an error but it would put you in the file
   dialog mode, even though it displayed the CGDB source window. Both of these
   bugs should be fixed.

   * Fixed bug in TGDB/CGDB. It was not properly parsing the breakpoint information
   out of GDB. When using C++, GDB would output data that TGDB did not expect.
   TGDB can now parse the data properly. The result is that CGDB now displays
   all of the breakpoints in the source window. It used to not display them all.

Enjoy,
The CGDB Team.
