You can have it both ways, somewhat:
define pt
if $argc == 0
set debug_tree ($)
else
set debug_tree ($arg0)
end
end
Good idea! If anyone wants to patch the commands, that's how it should
be done, I think.
Personally I'd just change to purely using $arg0 and have people
adjust their habits. But then, I've used my own argument-taking pt
for years :)
But since people can have it both ways, why not?
Because it won't work at all with an old gdb?
