That's great to hear. CGDB is currently undergoing some major changes,
in the next few months it might actually reach 1.0.

I have never seen this problem before. I typically work with an xterm
with white on black. I've also run it on gnome-terminal, cygwin shell,
putty, ...

What is you TERM set to?
Could you tell us the OS?  (uname -a)
The version of GDB that you are using? ( gdb --version )

Also, send us the ~/.tgdb/ directory, that might give me some info.

Mike might have a better idea of what the problem is, but we'll
probably need this info anyways.
