I'm using pdb with Xemacs here with no problem. Is a little different from the
gdb interface but is definitely more usable that pdb in command line. I'm using
Xemacs 21.1.6 with pdb.el that comes with it. I would still like to have a
pdb-mode for source files, similar with gdb-mode, but I guess the gdb-mode uses
the gdb annotations to be able to do that, which pdb doesn't have.
A better thing might be to have gdb support debugging Python programs, just
like it supports the other languages, but this is a different topic.
