Will GDB 6 have annotation level three? The patch that you posted (2003-03-11)
doesn't appear to have been applied yet.
I might have lost the plot a bit. I initially checked out interps-20030202-branch
but, after some difficulty, I moved to HEAD and found that things like
-interpreter-exec console cli-command
and
interpreter mi -<mi-command> <mi-args>
were present there also. Am I in the right place?
In the past you have suggested that (in the fullness of time)

I've got my head round variable objects and think that they might map on to
alists and the Emacs speedbar quite well. This means I can avoid the
annotations that mark up displayed expressions. However, the proposed patch
also removed some event annotations e.g source, query. I would like these to
stay. Here is a revised and reduced list of annotations that I think I could
work with:
frames-invalid
breakpoints-invalid
pre-prompt
prompt
commands
overload-choice
query
prompt-for-continue
post-prompt
source
starting
exited
signalled
signal
breakpoint
watchpoint
frame-begin
stopped
Could these stay? (indefinitely?)
