From: Andrew Cagney <ac131313@ges.redhat.com>
I got annoyed at all the GDB's in the formatted manual being really
large so tried changing them to @sc{gdb}. It fixed that problem but I'm
not sure that I like the final result :-) (You'll need to build
gdb.pdf, gdb ps or gdb.dvi).
Is there a style guide thing on this one? Eli?
There are no strict rules on this one, AFAIK. If the results of
@sc{gdb} look nice to people, let's do it; if not, let's not.
Personally, I like the results of @sc in such cases.

Hello,
(I'm really not sure about this one :-)
I got annoyed at all the GDB's in the formatted manual being really
large so tried changing them to @sc{gdb}. It fixed that problem but I'm
not sure that I like the final result :-) (You'll need to build
gdb.pdf, gdb ps or gdb.dvi).
