I'd have to learn Python or one of the other viable choices.
I am looking for/hoping for a nice, simple cookbook solution that
doesn't involve learning how to set up Python or swig interfaces,
rebuilding gdb with python hooks and gluing together all the pieces.
Something simple.  Applying Abhijit's patch and writing the 10 line
hook function was a simple cookbook solution.  Except it does
involve rebuilding GDB, so still not as simple as I'd like.

A pointer to a cook book would be really helpful. Thank you so much!

Regards, Bruce
