The documentation for the "maint time" command does not mention the units of time.
Also, there are a couple of typos in there. I have attempted to fix these in the
following patch; please let me know if we could word/punctuate this better and
I'll be happy to re-spin.
Thanks. I have a few suggestions for a better change:
Control whether to display the execution time for each command. If
set to a nonzero value, @value{GDBN} will display how much time it
! took (in seconds) to execute each command, following the command's own output.
It would be better to place the units right after "time":
Control whether to display the execution time for each command.
If set to a nonzero value, @value{GDBN} will display how much time
(in seconds) it took to execute each command, following the
command's own output.
! The time is not printed for the commands that run on the target, since
there's no mechanism currently to compute how much time was spend
^^^^^
"spent"
! by @value{GDBN} and how much time was spend by the program been debugged;
^^^^^ ^^^^
"spent" and "being"
! this is not possible currently.
I think this part is not needed. The sentence already says that
"there's no mechanism currently" to do this, so this addition simply
reiterates the same thing.
Thanks.
