<h2 class="appendix">Appendix B Formatting Documentation</h2>

<a name="index-GDB-reference-card"></a>
<a name="index-reference-card"></a>
<p>The <small>GDB</small> 4 release includes an already-formatted reference card, ready
for printing with PostScript or Ghostscript, in the <samp>gdb</samp>
subdirectory of the main source directory<a name="DOCF19" href="#FOOT19"><sup>19</sup></a>.  If you can use PostScript or Ghostscript with your printer,
you can print the reference card immediately with <samp>refcard.ps</samp>.
</p>
<p>The release also includes the source for the reference card.  You
can format it, using TeX, by typing:
</p>
<div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample">make refcard.dvi
</pre></div>

<p>The <small>GDB</small> reference card is designed to print in <em>landscape</em>
mode on US &ldquo;letter&rdquo; size paper;
that is, on a sheet 11 inches wide by 8.5 inches
high.  You will need to specify this form of printing as an option to
your <small>DVI</small> output program.
</p>
<a name="index-documentation"></a>

<p>All the documentation for <small>GDB</small> comes as part of the machine-readable
distribution.  The documentation is written in Texinfo format, which is
a documentation system that uses a single source file to produce both
on-line information and a printed manual.  You can use one of the Info
formatting commands to create the on-line version of the documentation
and TeX (or <code>texi2roff</code>) to typeset the printed version.
</p>
<p><small>GDB</small> includes an already formatted copy of the on-line Info
version of this manual in the <samp>gdb</samp> subdirectory.  The main Info
file is <samp>gdb-10.1.90.20201028-git/gdb/gdb.info</samp>, and it refers to
subordinate files matching &lsquo;<samp>gdb.info*</samp>&rsquo; in the same directory.  If
necessary, you can print out these files, or read them with any editor;
but they are easier to read using the <code>info</code> subsystem in <small>GNU</small>
Emacs or the standalone <code>info</code> program, available as part of the
<small>GNU</small> Texinfo distribution.
</p>
<p>If you want to format these Info files yourself, you need one of the
Info formatting programs, such as <code>texinfo-format-buffer</code> or
<code>makeinfo</code>.
</p>
<p>If you have <code>makeinfo</code> installed, and are in the top level
<small>GDB</small> source directory (<samp>gdb-10.1.90.20201028-git</samp>, in the case of
version 10.1.90.20201028-git), you can make the Info file by typing:
</p>
<div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample">cd gdb
make gdb.info
</pre></div>

<p>If you want to typeset and print copies of this manual, you need TeX,
a program to print its <small>DVI</small> output files, and <samp>texinfo.tex</samp>, the
Texinfo definitions file.
</p>
<p>TeX is a typesetting program; it does not print files directly, but
produces output files called <small>DVI</small> files.  To print a typeset
document, you need a program to print <small>DVI</small> files.  If your system
has TeX installed, chances are it has such a program.  The precise
command to use depends on your system; <kbd>lpr -d</kbd> is common; another
(for PostScript devices) is <kbd>dvips</kbd>.  The <small>DVI</small> print command may
require a file name without any extension or a &lsquo;<samp>.dvi</samp>&rsquo; extension.
</p>
<p>TeX also requires a macro definitions file called
<samp>texinfo.tex</samp>.  This file tells TeX how to typeset a document
written in Texinfo format.  On its own, TeX cannot either read or
typeset a Texinfo file.  <samp>texinfo.tex</samp> is distributed with GDB
and is located in the <samp>gdb-<var>version-number</var>/texinfo</samp>
directory.
</p>
<p>If you have TeX and a <small>DVI</small> printer program installed, you can
typeset and print this manual.  First switch to the <samp>gdb</samp>
subdirectory of the main source directory (for example, to
<samp>gdb-10.1.90.20201028-git/gdb</samp>) and type:
</p>
<div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample">make gdb.dvi
</pre></div>

<p>Then give <samp>gdb.dvi</samp> to your <small>DVI</small> printing program.
