CGDB 0.5.3 Released
-------------------

Downloading:

    Go to http://cgdb.sourceforge.net/download.shtml for download
    link and instructions.

This new version contains the following changes:

   * CGDB now can detect the version of readline that it is going to link a=
gainst.
   By doing this, it can alert the user at configure time if the readline v=
ersion
   is OK to build CGDB with. If it is not OK, configure will fail.
  =20
   * CGDB has changed its user interface in a way that is not backwards com=
patible.
   The 't' key, now sets a temporary breakpoint. The 't' key used to put CG=
DB into=20
   insert mode in the TTY window. Now 'I' does that.
  =20
   * CGDB is now capable of setting a temporary breakpoint thanks to Marcel=
 Lanz.
   He sent in a patch with the functionality. Hitting 't' set's a temporary=
 breakpoint.
  =20
   * It was reported that the "Windows" Key would cause CGDB to shut down.
   This has been fixed.
  =20
   * Added a new 'arrowstyle' option, see README for documentation

   * Add the ^l command to the Source window. CGDB will now clear and redraw
   the screen when this command is received.
  =20
   * It is now required to have the GNU history library in order
   to configure CGDB successfully. This was always the case, but the
   configure checks wouldn't catch it.

   * Get readline configure check to only look for libreadline. Not libedit=
, ...
   Future version of CGDB will depend on functionality that only readline w=
ill
   contains.

Enjoy,
