    [tools] Add redirect gdb helper · 8081c9da
    Camillo Bruni authored
    Redirect forwards stdout to a file for the duration of a gdb command.
    This is useful when inspecting very large objects that generate several pages
    of output in a gdb session.
    
    If the GDB_EXTERNAL_EDITOR environment variable is set, popup will
    automatically open the generated temporary file in the provided editor.
    A simple default that works is GDB_EXTERNAL_EDITOR="gnome-open". Note that
    this should be a GUI editor since you would otherwise interrupt the
    active gdb session.
    
        redirect jco 0x12345678
        redirect x/2000xg 0x12345678
