[Lazarus] Terminal window, workaround

[svaa]

Hello:

I've decide to use the this work around. I write to filetext and in a 
terminal I use "tail -f <file>". It lets me stop in a breakpoint from 
the IDE and watch in the terminal the current value with a writeln. It's 
not the best, but it works for what I need. May be later I will learn 
how to use the gdb from command line.

By the way, I thought gdb was unable to display Pascal variables, but if 
gdb is able to display the value of any variable in Pascal, what's the 
problem of Lazarus's IDE in displaying the value? It uses gdb as 
debugger backend. doesn't it?

Regards
Santiago Amposta
