  21    GDB can print parts of your program's source, since the debugging
  22 information recorded in the program tells GDB what source files were
  23 used to build it.  When your program stops, GDB spontaneously prints
  24 the line where it stopped.  Likewise, when you select a stack frame
  25 (see <a href="Selection.html#Selection">Selecting a frame</a>), GDB prints the line where
  26 execution in that frame has stopped.  You can print other portions of
  27 source files by explicit command.

  29    <p>If you use GDB through its <small>GNU</small> Emacs interface, you may
  30 prefer to use Emacs facilities to view source; see <a href="Emacs.html#Emacs">Using GDB under <small>GNU</small> Emacs</a>.
