Should we split until into two commands?

[cpitclaudel]

IOW, should we have:

• one command for "run until current line" (edebug maps this to h for "here")
• one command for "run until a greater source line is reached" (which is currently what U does in RealGUD, except when given a prefix argument)

Splitting would be useful, I think: this way one could place the point on some line and press h to go there. On debuggers that don't build this in we could use tbreak, as already suggested by the docstring of cmd-until.

I have no opinion so go ahead. If others object, they'll let you know.

[cpitclaudel]

Perfect. AFAICT there will be no functional change to the command currently bound to U, except for the prefix argument case.

Is this function available now? It's quite useful.

[rocky]

I don't think so, and I am not sure which of the existing debuggers support this.

So feel free to implement it.

Hi, Rocky,

Here is the pull request: #230
Hope the code is useful, and thank you for the hard work on realgud!

Thanks,
