j2@mvuxi.att.com (J W Sherman) (04/16/91)

The AT&T Advanced Software Products group is announcing an
X11 based graphical user interface for the dbx and sdb debuggers.
The eXamine Graphical Interface communicates with the underlying
debugger and provides a sophisticated window interface for the user.
Features allow users to:

	- View source code within a window.
	- Graphically represent breakpoints, current stop point
	  and call frames within the source code.
	- Create trace windows which display the results of debugger scripts
	  whenever a breakpoint is encountered.
	- Edit and recompile source files without leaving the debugger.
	- Create and use command buttons to add new actions.
	- Access a breakpoint list for finding or deleting breakpoints.
	- Access any UNIX system command from the interface.
	- Toggle between two interface configurations.
	- Customize the interface including all of the pull down menus,
	  command buttons, and physical display information.
	- Add note windows for capturing screen information.

The eXamine Graphical Interface currently supports dbx and extended dbx for
C++ on Sun 3 and Sun 4 platforms; it also supports sdb and sdb++ for
the 386 and AT&T 3B2 platforms. The eXamine Graphical Interface will run
with the X11 Window System Release 3 or 4 (including OpenWindows), and will
operate with any ICCCM-compliant window manager.

The eXamine Graphical Interface is priced at $795/copy. An introductory price
of $695/copy is available until April 1, 1991. Discounts are available for
multiple copies. For more information about the eXamine Graphical Interface,
