Re: symbol with in disassembly window



keiths> since this problem also presumably exists in gdb (right?).

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.
