            Bug ID: 17849
           Summary: Showing local variables in gdb tui window
           Product: gdb
           Version: unknown
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2

An image of lldb's gui, while a program is running.

In gdb, a user could input `info locals` to show the current local variables,
but it would be convenient if in tui mode, we could see the local variables in
a separate window. 

Furthermore, it would be convenient if a user could see the attributes of an
object, if an object is a local variable.

lldb somewhat already implements this feature, when you run lldb's gui. lldb's
gui is not officially documented, nor is it the main focus of lldb's
production. However, some of the functionality is there, and it would be nice
if gdb implemented this functionality as well.
