I use xxgdb for a dbxtool-like interface to gdb. Compiling probably
involved access to the athena widget library, which is present if
you have X11R4, X11R5, and OW3 (i think). OW2 seems to be missing this,
though. Otherwise you could use mxgdb, which needs Motif libraries,
which we don't have.

If you have OW2, you could try to just get the athena library. (libXaw).
Better, get X11R4 or X11R5, as Xsun is much faster and time efficient
compared to xnews.

BTW Instead of dbxtool i often use xdbx, when i use Sun C++. And when using
	sun C (cc) i use ups. But that is for another newsgroup...
