I am trying to find tools that I can use (from the command line) that would help me to debug and/or learn more about how the programs I write in C/C++ work, or things like the make system. If these tools have already been mentioned, or don't exist then that's ok. I was just curious about what tools (if any) are available. I hope this helps clarify what I was trying to ask. Thank's
