This part is okay, but please fix the punctuation as shown below:

 There are multiple classes of targets such, as: processes, executable files or
 recording sessions.  Core files belong to the process class, making core file
 and process mutually exclusive.  Otherwise, @value{GDBN} can work concurrently
 on multiple active targets, one in each class.  This allows you to (for
 example) start a process and inspect its activity, while still having access to
 the executable file after the process finishes.  Or if you start process
 recording (@pxref{Reverse Execution}) and @code{reverse-step} there, you are
 presented a virtual layer of the recording target, while the process target
 remains stopped at the chronologically last point of the process execution.

Thanks.
