     1.4 +GDB, the GNU Project debugger, allows you to see what is going on "inside"
     1.5 +another program while it executes -- or what another program was doing at
     1.6 +the moment it crashed.
     1.7 +
     1.8 +GDB can do four main kinds of things (plus other things in support of
     1.9 +these) to help you catch bugs in the act:
    1.10 +
    1.11 +* Start your program, specifying anything that might affect its behavior.
    1.12 +* Make your program stop on specified conditions.
    1.13 +* Examine what has happened, when your program has stopped.
    1.14 +* Change things in your program, so you can experiment with correcting
    1.15 +  the effects of one bug and go on to learn about another. 
    1.16 +
    1.17 +Those programs might be executing on the same machine as GDB (native),
    1.18 +on another machine (remote), or on a simulator.
    1.19 +GDB can run on most popular UNIX and Microsoft Windows variants, as well
    1.20 +as on Mac OS X.
