Agreed. I go through the doc today, and spot another three abbreviated
command missing abbreviation definition in code.
@item show convenience
Print a list of convenience variables used so far, and their values,
as well as a list of the convenience functions.
Abbreviated @code{show conv}.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
because @value{GDBN} has the command @code{set gnutarget}, abbreviated
@code{set g}:
^^^^^^^^^^^^
@noindent
You can abbreviate this command as @code{del tr}.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
patch below is to fix them.
