And what exactly is the point of repeating 4 different reasons for one
simple thing: you hate gdb UI? I really got the message :-)

All right then, I must have misunderstood then. You hate the gdb
UI, and you'd prefer that it has GUI.

That's because there's nothing to discuss with.
I accept it that those are the reasons why *you* hate gdb, while at the
same time, this reasons are either meaningless to me, or are actually an
advantage.

I might have agreed somewhat with you at that: see gmake development cycle,
and yes - that of gdb. One could argue whether that's because of innovation
or because of lack of support. But your generalization has proven you
wrong, so I say: Yeah, right.

Especially the Gnu Compiler Collection, which also
has been abandoned since 1990, right? ;)
And Gnome, which has never changed since its first release.
And all that GPL and LGPL software that Google can display and lots of
people use everyday: Audacity, Pidgin, Octave, Blender... no, they don't
exist, they must have been my dream.

Have a nice day :-)
