ddd will let you specify a gdb debugger to use. You have to add -g -ggdb to

Replace ppc_8xx-gdb with your debugger of choice, gdb is the default if you
do not specify.
Yes, that works.  Thanks.


But it isn't as nice as I had hoped.  The display feature chews up
lots and lots of screen space, and little things like clicking on
something that began with "/x" fails, making it hard to browse values
in hex.  I was starting to get the hang of how to sort of use it when
I realized that I could do better with gdb inside emacs.  Hmmm.  I'll
have to try insight next.
