<<Actually i would expect the next version of GNAT for NT to have
a GUI debugger since there is now one with the latest version of
gnu-win32 from cygnus. In fact, with a lot of fiddling I have gotten
the new version of the debugger to work with this older version of gnat
(based on the older cgynus release).. (Without the Ada specific gdb stuff but
that is not really needed)

Well for that matter a debugger is not really *needed*, but is nice to have!
And I think most people will find the Ada specific stuff in gdb prety nice
especially as it is further developed.

Also, yes, indeed we are producting a GUI debugger based on GDBTK, but
extended with a lot of Ada specific stuff, like exception views, task
views etc.
