Is there a way to define a macro?

[Vincent Rubiolo]

Hello,

You may also want to take a look at automatic display, which can also 
and save you lots of keystrokes.

See http://sources.redhat.com/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb_9.html#SEC62 
for more details,

Cheers,

Vincent

For example, after execution of each instruction, I want to inspecting all common registers. So, every time, I have to enter command 'info register' several times. Is there a way to define a macro, by which I can enter these commands conveniently.
