I too would prefer one of the names with "gdb" in it somewhere.


I would also, I actually like the name gdbtui. It is clear that it is
GDB, and it is clear that it is the text user interface.

Then: tui<tab> or tg<tab> wouldn't work.

Speaking of which, if that tcl/tk code ever integrated into GDB's code base (assuming it's first contributed), it to will need a name: tclgdb, tkgdb, and even gdbtk come to mind (ah, the ultimate irony).
