gdb features

Hello,

I have been using dbx for a while, before I switched to gdb, mainly
because of it's consistent use across different platforms. While I like
gdb better in most respects, there are two features of dbx, that I've
come to miss:

- redirection of gdb output, i.e:	
(gdb) info stack >stackfile

- attaching automatically (or according to some rules) to forked
processes
in dbx there was an option "multiproc on" that made dbx fork according
to the forks in the debugged process, asking on which process to
continue. 

Please tell me, if there has been any work done on these subjects, or if
there are plans to do so.

Best wishes

Neven Luetic
