@@ -64,7 +64,11 @@ After connecting to QEMU, you can use various gdb commands to control execution
- `step` or `s`: Step into the current line, i.e. jump to the called function. Sometimes this doesn't work in Rust OSes.
- `list` or `l`: Shows the source code around the current position.
- `print` or `p`: Prints the value of a variable. You can use Cs `*` and `&` operators. To print in hexadecimal, use `p/x`.
- `tui enable`: Enables the text user interface, which provides a graphical interface (see below). To disable it again, run `tui disable`.
Of course there are many more commands. Feel free to send a PR if you think this list is missing something important. The [website for Harvard's CS161 course][CS161] has a more complete GDB overview.
