Most certianly, however there are times when
A) you want the fully un-ambigious name (Even though it is 100+ chars
long) and thus I too am hestitant to change perminately.
B) There are times though when a prefix or abeviated version is
enough, ie:
someFunc(int,int,int,int,int ....:
This is *VERY* apparent in the disassembly window when dealing with
managled C++ code, not so much with plain C.
It seems that the gdb core function:
print_address_symbolic()
nees an extra parameter, "maxwidth" with something like 0
meaning the sky's the limit.
This would neccesisate changes in three places.
(A) printcmd.c
Wrapper or a new function.
(B) in gdbtk-cmds.c, to pass the new parameter.
(C) some place - gdb/gdbtk/generic/???.c or gdb/???.c to set/show the
parameter.
