I'm trying to debug a program with either xde or dbx, but it needs input
from stdin. With dbx, it sometimes prompts me for the data, and continues
on without stopping until the end of the program. xde just hangs and does
not let me type anything in, let alone stop the program. Any ideas??

Smile. It makes people wonder what you're up to.

Mark,

Have you tried typing input in the window you started xde from?
(Not the xde window itself). Obviously to make this work you cannot
start xde in the background.
