GDB
reads its input commands via the readline
interface. This GNU library provides consistent behavior for programs which
provide a command line interface to the user. Advantages are GNU Emacs-style
or vi-style inline editing of commands, csh-like
history substitution, and a storage and recall of command history across
debugging sessions. You may control the behavior of command line editing
in GDB with the command, set.
