RE: Documentation: Debugging with GDB (6.7.5.0)

Hi,
how's it goin'? I'm trying to make a GDB init file work in windows...


In section 2.1.3, regarding .gdbinit, it says that in Windows we should 
use the "standard name" which is ".gdbinit" (not gdb.ini -- which gdb 
actively rejects. Nor gdb.init, nor gdbinit)

However, Windows (XP) doesn't allow any file named ".anything" and will 
not accept ".gdbinit" as a valid file.



Help. Maybe a bug. Maybe something simple. Hair is going. Could you pls. 
advise?

Thanks,
Ted Alves
