Thanks Daniel and Eric. All working, and another (little) frustration removed.
Just out of curiousity, what home location does Mspdebug pick up its .mspdebug init file from on XP? It doesn't appear to be the normal UserProfile (C:\Documents and Settings\<user>). It works fine putting this in my working directory, which is perfect for what I need.

Hi Andrew, "opt" is a command on its own, and the option you want is "gdb_loop". Try adding this to your ~/.mspdebug file: opt gdb_loop true Cheers, Daniel -- Daniel Beer <dlb...@gmail.com> www.dlbeer.co.nz IRC: inittab (Freenode) PGP key: 2048D/160A553B ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ November Webinars for C, C++, Fortran Developers Accelerate application performance with scalable programming models.
