Re: RFC: GDB as a loader 3/3: --eval-command option

[Andrew STUBBS <andrew dot stubbs at st dot com>]

Here is a documentation patch for the --eval-command option.

I am not sure this is the right place in the manual. It is not a 'file' 
option as such, but nor is it a 'mode' option, and I want to put it 
alongside -command.

	* gdb.texinfo (Choosing files): Add --eval-command.
