Sometimes my girlfriend reminds me that its kinda fucked up that I get excited when the things I need to understand are presented to me in a more readable way but still look like the Matrix to her.

I saw this before and it always looked like a nice pice of software. The sad part is, it is still at &quot;0 releases&quot;.<p>To the developers of this software: please provide a stable release that can be packaged for the popular package managers&#x2F;distributions. That will help to spread the word about your work and make it easily accessible.

I guess the news here is that they now use Capstone. I haven&#x27;t tried either, but I&#x27;m excited for a de-facto standard open-source disassembler. A lot of great tools could come out of it. Now if we had something of similar quality for decompilers...

I&#x27;ve just never been a fan of console-based debugging. The greatest thing an IDE brings to the table for me is debugging against a GUI editor window.

Seems good. Actually what I like most is that it appears to be well documented, so it might be worth a try. I always found cumbersome to use console based debuggers, and wonder if there&#x27;s any real advantage once the learning curve as been climbed.

Reminds me of gdb-dashboard [1] with the additional debugging engines supported. Very nice.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;cyrus-and&#x2F;gdb-dashboard" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;cyrus-and&#x2F;gdb-dashboard</a>

Do people outside of MS actually use WinDbg?

Cat it be used in a more traditional use case with source available and locals&#x2F;watch&#x2F;etc views?

Can&#x27;t you do this with tmux instead?

Looks like a nice operating system, but it seems to lack a decent editor..<p>Edit: Downvoters, can you care to explain? I would actually like someone to reinvent Emacs (or Vim, for that matter) as something more general.
