I hate to say this, but I cringe everytime I hear about someone
connecting to a target in .gdbinit. It can really screw up insight.
Have not observed any obvious problems. What should I look out for?
Nonetheless, there are options:
1) Put all your target commands in .gdbinit into a user-defined command.
Then just run that command (via the console window).
2) Use target settings dialog. Click Run button.

When looking up "user-defined" command in manual saw "source" command.
This seems to do exactly what I want, i.e., I type
so .gdbinit
and it all starts over and preserves the old breakpoints.
Thanks for the help.
