[gvd-users] My first session on a supercomputer

> What's Fortran-specific about gvd? If I have a debugger (e.g. gdb) 

Graphical display of data structures is language dependent.
Now, if you do not display data in the data window (e.g. only
print values in the debugger console), then it may work.

My recommendation in this case would be to force the language to C,
so as to avoid confusing GVD, since if gdb tells GVD that some frame
is using fortran, GVD may simply generate an error message and not work
properly.

Anyway, you should first make sure that you have a working gdb for your
specific configuration, you simply can't assume that because gdb is working
on machine A, it will work on machine B.
