Isn't the debugger that Xcode uses gdb?  "Xcode debugger

without Xcode" sounds like gdb to me.


gdb is a command line interface.

Xcode Debugger is a GUI that sits on top of gdb.  

What the OP wants is a GUI debugger on a makefile project, without having to build the project in Xcode.  And Xcode can do that; the hack is you have to a) create a null project beforehand (you don't have to build the sources in Xcode), and b) you have to manually point the debugger at the process and your sources.  

But once you have that, it does work, and believe me, it's much nicer than 's s s s s' in the Terminal.
