This part is OK, except that I believe we use "GDB", not "gdb".

"-data-disassemble" should be in @code.

Same here.

"named", I guess.

"of", not "to", and "@value{GDBN}" instead of "gdb".

@code

The patch for the manual is OK with these changes.

Why do we sometimes use names with a hyphen, like func-name, and
sometimes with underscores, like line_asm_insn?  Shouldn't we pick one
and use it consistently?

Thanks.
