1Scope Plugin
2============

4About
5-----
6Scope is a graphical GDB front-end with the normal functions you would
7expect (stepping, breakpoints...), and a few notable features:
8
9- The comminication between Scope and gdb is asynchronous.
10- You can enter any gdb command, at any time (of course, for the command to
11 be executed, gdb must be[come] available).
12- All gdb I/O (along with some other messages) is displayed in a
13 terminal-like "Debug Console".
14 Whenever you find the GUI lacking, simply switch to that console and work
15 directly with gdb.
16- 7-bit/Locale/UTF-8 support for values.
