One thing that would be great would be to replace GDB's rather
inexpressive control language with something more like Python
or Scheme. I once tried to cajole the Cygnus folks into doing
this but they weren't interested. It sounds like PyDB might be
doing something similar, but with the assumption that the C
program under study is always the Python interpreter. But a
Pythonized GDB that could be applied to any C program would be
a very cool thing.

Resistance is futile. Capacitance is efficacious.
