  67. <p>By default and if not explicitly closed by the target system, the file
  68. descriptors 0, 1 and 2 are connected to the <small>GDB</small> console. Output
  69. on the <small>GDB</small> console is handled as any other file output operation
  70. (<code>write(1, &hellip;)</code> or <code>write(2, &hellip;)</code>). Console input is handled
  71. by <small>GDB</small> so that after the target read request from file descriptor
  72. 0 all following typing is buffered until either one of the following
  73. conditions is met:
  74. </p>
  75. <ul>
  76. <li> The user types <kbd>Ctrl-c</kbd>. The behaviour is as explained above, and the
  77. <code>read</code>
  78. system call is treated as finished.
  79. </li><li> The user presses <tt class="key">RET</tt>. This is treated as end of input with a trailing
  80. newline.
  81. </li><li> The user types <kbd>Ctrl-d</kbd>. This is treated as end of input. No trailing
  82. character (neither newline nor &lsquo;<samp>Ctrl-D</samp>&rsquo;) is appended to the input.
  83. </li></ul>
  84. <p>If the user has typed more characters than fit in the buffer given to
  85. the <code>read</code> call, the trailing characters are buffered in <small>GDB</small> until
  86. either another <code>read(0, &hellip;)</code> is requested by the target, or debugging
  87. is stopped at the user&rsquo;s request.
