It must hang but the question is "where's gdb"? I guess ps auxw|grep gdb will have more hints (and probably there will be some pty allocated under /dev/pts, or something like that). > Any idea what I should be doing now to get to the ? > Thanks a lot for the responses so far.

No idea, maybe seeing at least the URL of the script (or better if it's little enough pasting it inline) will help the reader (no, nobody will ever go and look for the message on the forum). Btw, if it's an email on the uml-devel mailing list (as it seems), using the archives at marc.theaimsgroup.com works better. Finally, publishing that script into the Wiki (uml.harlowhill.com) will help other users. -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can keep imitating Homer Simpson's "Doh!".
