Re: [PATCH] -nx-except-gdbtkinit option

That would work fine for me. I don't know why it is any different, but it is different and I didn't feel comfortable changing the default, let alone removing the functionality altogether. This is probably a discussion for the Insight list. I think I'll test the water.

I like this suggestion better anyway. If Insight is compiled in, have it read its configuration.

But the Insight guys didn't. However, they have accepted my patch here: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/insight/2005-q4/msg00037.html.


This solves the problem entirely in Insight by having an environment variable override the -nx option.

I don't know how this is for other people, but it solves the problem for me.

Please disregard my -nx-except-gdbtkinit patch from now on (not that you weren't going to anyway).

Thanks
