DESCRIPTION¶
This manual page documents briefly the
winpdb and
rpdb2 commands.
This manual page was written for the
Debian distribution because the
original program does not have a manual page.
winpdb is a GUI frontend to
rpdb2, a remote debugger for python,
which is capable to debug threads- and curses-based code.
OPTIONS¶
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options
starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below.
- -h --help
- Print the program's help.
- -d --debuggee
- Start debuggee and break into it, without starting a
debugger console.
- -a --attach
- Attach to an already started debuggee.
- -o --host
- Specify host for attachment.
- -r --remote
- Allow debuggees to accept connections from remote
machines.
- -e --encrypt
- Force encrypted connections between debugger and
debuggees.
- -p --pwd
- Password. This flag is available only on NT systems. On
other systems the password will be queried interactively if it is
needed.
- -s --screen
- Use the Unix screen utility when spawning the
debuggee.
- -c --chdir
- Change the working directory to that of the launched
script.
