When you exit shell, blocking GDBFrontend functions will continue working.

### Zombie Processes
Sometimes GDB and gdb-frontend may not be closed correctly. In this case, you can terminate gdb-frontend shell.
GDBFrontend sends SIGTERM to its sub-processes, your application and its sub-processes.
If your application is forking new processes and setting their PGIDs, GDBFrontend may not close them. In this case you should send SIGKILL to your processes.

```bash
tmux kill-session -t gdb-frontend
pkill -f gdb
```
