GDB is a coder's best friend (well after gcc and caffeine, of course). It's a debugger that will allow you to fix your coding mistakes much easier, and if you can't fix them, you're a lot more likely to get help if you can send GDB info to this list. If you're on a unix-based system you may already have it (try typing gdb at your prompt). You may have to ask the machine administrator for it. If you''re running under windows you're probably better off using the debugger supplied with your compiling package, though there aren't as many people on this list who would be familiar with microsoft or borland debuggers. GDB: Get it, love it, live it :) Sam
