Thank you for the patch.

I think I'd prefer a hyphen in there, since "cursorline" isn't a word.
So, tui-cursor-line. But why "cursor" and not "current"? "current
line" seems to be the term used in the gdb manual.

Please add an introductory comment explaining the purpose of the

Space before "(". There are a couple instances of this here.

I don't think this is correct, because the source window may not extend
to the end of the line.
