Is there any interface defined for that purpose? Or you think that I
should create a new gdb command? If I handle that from a new gdb

integration to ddd without changing sources of it.

Is there any description which can handle such idea? Maybe you already
have such a solution finsihed? Maybe there is also an official one but
not known by me?
