All the documentation has been put in the doc/ +directory. + +A full port of each library will probably be done for FreeBSD 2.0 and +included as system libraries so that other build tools can share them. +At that time a more complete port of GDB-4 will be done that allows +configuration for different systems and uses the full libraries. + +paul@freefall.cdrom.com |
