Nemiver is a graphical tool that can be used to take advantage of debugging information that uses gdb as a backend. It provides all of the features that the terminal-based gdb provides, but in a more sophisticated GUI interface that follows the code as it is executed.

My Lisp-centric "Good Easy"
"I enjoyed reading Mark Pilgrim's "My Good Easy" blog post last year. In it, he described his Linux configuration and included links to all his main configuration files.
