debugger.  Doing "Run" or "Run - Breakpoints Off" under the Run menu
both give me a gdb prompt in my console.  I just want to run my app,
without gdb in the middle (I find gdb too buggy to be worth fighting
with except when I'm really stumped by a problem).  Is this no longer
possible?

There is no longer a strong distinction between running and debugging. It's
merely a question of whether breakpoints are activated (obeyed) or not. I'd
describe this as a major plus. I don't think gdb is in any important sense
"in the middle" when running without breakpoints. If you really hate it
(e.g. you just want to launch faster), I suppose you could double- click the
Product.

It is generally a question of wanting to launch faster, yes. And wanting to launch without having to tell gdb to run; at present, it seems I need to open the console window and type "r <return>", which is an extra step. I like having very fast turnaround time from making a change to seeing my change running in my app, so having to keep telling gdb "yes, I really do want you to run my program, that's why I told you to run it" gets a bit old. Maybe there's a way to circumvent the need for that step?


  Thanks!
