Well, it turns out that "ddd-2.1.0.tar.gz" was actually ddd v1.3b (for FreeBSD 2.1.0...). So it would appear that the latest and greatest version "carried by" FreeBSD is 1.4c (Nate uses this one, as well as several other people who responded and I forget their names.. :-)). It seems that DDD is quite a popular GUI debugger. Unfortunately, it's not compiled up for version 2.0 yet -- so us folks without Motif can't use it. On the plus side, I tried out 1.4c and it seems quite excellent!! Now I really want to see 2.0! Maybe this weekend I'll dig into LessTif and see if I can get it compiled...
