I'm trying to use TUI mode in gdb on my Mac and for some reason it doesn't recognize the "-tui" flag.

I am about to install the latest version but as I can't find any mention of TUI not working in older versions, I was swondering if perhaps I'm doing it wrong.

How can I use TUI on my Mac?

GDB can be built without tui, and this may be the case. Compile gdb for yourself, and enable TUI in configure.

Or, compile a cgdb, which is very like TUI.

but the Apple gdb is built with this feature /TUI/ disabled.

Nice! And if you are using Homebrew, it has a recipe for installing cgdb -- just do brew install cgdb
